SUMMARY:Celebration Station

You can make your own footballer in paper doll form\, building them limb by limb and securing the parts in place with safety pins. The end result is a player that can be moved into your preferred celebration pose\, be it a straight-armed Shearer or the popular ‘Cold Palmer’ (sorry\, Morgan Rogers). You could even come up with a completely unique celebration of your own! \nWe will also be asking visitors to practice heir own celebrations in real life at our Celebration Station. Grab a shirt and prop of your choice and strike a pose against our Pitch Gallery backdrop! \n
