Junior Cherries

Junior Cherries Christmas Party full of fun

Approximately 300 Junior Cherries were in attendance for our annual Christmas party, which took place down at the Bournemouth International Centre. 

The young supporters were able to meet all their heroes and get shirts, autograph books and football signed by the first team squad, which saw every player involved. 

In and around meeting the team, the Junior Cherries were kept well entertained, with host Ross Goode up on stage to put on some football quizzes and play plenty of games with the youngsters. 

There was also an arts and crafts station, plus an area for the fans to browse the latest AFC Bournemouth merchandise, with a pop up shop on site. 

Official partner, Bournemouth University, were on hand to help, bringing a giant Connect Four, Jenga, Mega Blocks and a reaction board, which several of the supporters tried their hand at. 

Junior Cherries partner, Helpful Hounds, came down too and brought a couple of their service dogs for the children to meet. 

A fantastic afternoon concluded with the signing session as all the young supporters got the opportunity to meet the players and management in person.
