To celebrate the end of a successful Bolton Wanderers Community Trust School of Football half term soccer course, Johan Elmander and Tamir Cohen made a visit after training to meet the children who had been undertaking the five day skills course at Canon Slade Secondary School.
The group of youngsters on the course delivered by BWCT coaches spent their half term developing their football skills including shooting, turning, dribbling, agility and goalkeeping along with small sided games.
During Johan and Tamir's visit, the children were given the opportunity to show case their skills in front of the two players before a small question and answer session where they offered their advice to the young budding professionals before getting photographs and autographs.
After his visit to Canon Slade Secondary School, Johan said: "It's been really enjoyable to come down here today with Tamir and for us to meet the children who have all been working so hard on this football course this week.
It is clear from watching them play that they are all really keen and enthusiastic footballers who are really enjoying themselves and there have been some great skills on display- who knows, we may have a future star for Bolton Wanderers here."

Alex Fahlin who's Father is Swedish was extremely happy when Johan Elmander turned up at the course as he is his favourite Swedish player. When Johan saw that Alex was wearing the Sweden national team shirt he was more than happy to pose with Alex for a photo and sign his shirt.
