Leyton Orient Footballers Visit Junior Site
Fri 27 Mar 2015Leyton Orient midfielders Josh Wright and Bradley Pritchard provided a fun afternoon for the children when they visited the Junior site to talk about their careers, sign autographs and lead a training session for some lucky Year 4 pupils.The players spoke about the highs and lows they have experienced including what it's like to win promotion, to play at Wembley, and how it effects players when they are injured or out of contract. Josh, brother of TV star Mark Wright, described to an enthralled audience about the time he scored against Manchester United whilst Bradley spoke fondly about the first professional game he ever played in.The players also bought with them 50 free match tickets for the children for the vital up coming game against Port Vale which will hopefully see the O's bag three points and move a step closer away from the relegation zone. -
