As a player you’ll get the chance to pull on your exclusive personalised Bolton Wanderers replica shirt in the official changing rooms, experience the thrill of walking down the tunnel to the sound of a cheering crowd and step out onto the hallowed turf proudly sporting your official playing kit and represent The Trotters in a never to be forgotten 90 minutes of football!

To add to that, the matches at the Macron Stadium have also been supported by a host of fantastic Bolton legends in recent years, with the likes of Tony Kelly, John McGinlay, Andy Walker, David Lee, Mike Whitlow, Gavin McCann (and many more) all lending their extra special support by playing alongside or managing the fans on their big day.
