Has your son or daughter grown out of their football boots, but they are too good to throw away? And now you have to spend a fortune on the latest and greatest pair of boots for your future football star. Well we here in Leicester Celtic can help. We would like to start a new boot exchange facility here in the club. Simply bring along your old boots and take a larger size in exchange. If you don't have any to bring in but want to take a pair we would ask you for a small donation to the club, how much is up to you. We will run the exchange twice a month on the first and third Saturday from 10.00 to 11.00 in the clubhouse. Boots must be in good condition For more details text Eve at 086-2016223
