Prentice Hoping For Big England Turnout On Friday

Last updated : 30 August 2006 By Stray Shots Team
Shots Chairman Karl Prentice has told the clubs official website, www.theshots.co.uk that he is excited ahead of Fridays evenings England Under 17's match which is taking place at the RG.

Speaking to the site he said, "We are hoping youngsters and their families will be turning up on Friday who may not have considered Aldershot in the past.

"There will be youngsters who support premier league clubs in attendance and we want people to recognise the fact that Aldershot is on their doorstep and has something to offer too.

"There is a catchment area here that is growing and it is important that we build on that. We have had Chelsea Reserves over the past few years and they have been a great help to the club and now with staging an England match too we are building good positive relationships and foundations for the future. I hope that the local public turn up in their numbers on Friday evening".
