Youngsters from Cedarwood Primary School in Kesgrave are preparing for their big Bank Holiday Monday match at Wembley.
They are taking part in a six-a-side tournament which is part of the build-up to what is billed as the most valuable game in the world – victory for Huddersfield Town or Reading tomorrow will give them a golden ticket to the Premier League – a prize which is worth £170m according to accountants Deloitte.
The Cedarwood team won through to Wembley after winning a local tournament at Portman Road – and then finishing at the top of a tournament in Southall in London.
They headed off to the capital today with good wishes from across the town.
