Flow Ultimate Football Experience said to have left a lasting impact on several Young Caribbean Footballers

Hundreds of young footballers from around the region re said to have had the time of their lives, as they were put to the test, for a chance to be selected in the Ultimate Football Experience; a competition designed and executed by Flow and Manchester United, with the support of the Caribbean Football Union (CFU).
 
Participants between the ages of 13 and 16 gathered on football fields across Flow’s 15 Caribbean markets, for the preliminary rounds of the Flow Ultimate Football Experience. 30 lucky winners, two from each market, qualified to go to Trinidad to compete in the Final 2-day event on May 6 and 7, with the opportunity to win the ultimate prize of a trip to Old Trafford in Manchester, UK, to see a Manchester United Premier League fixture.
 
With the chance to potentially win the trip of a lifetime fuelling their competitive fires, each young footballer participated in a series of drills such as ball control, short passing and dribbling, as they tried to set themselves apart from the pack.
 
But it wasn’t just about the grand prize, or rubbing shoulders with Manchester United Club Ambassador Dwight Yorke and legend Quinton Fortune, for as one of St Lucia’s winners, 13-year-old Jeremiah’s remarks suggest, many youngsters found a sense of pride and motivation, simply in having the chance to represent their wider community.
 
“I am very proud to win this for myself, my family, and my community,” Justin said. “I think we just came in here and gave it our best, and we are both really excited to have made it to the regional finals. I want to say thank you to Flow. I hope to make the best out of it in Trinidad.”
