Twenty-five young children who are members of the Arsenal Malta Supporters Club had a ball of a time with two Arsenal FC coaches, Paul Shipwright and Martin Davis.

Arsenal FC coaches were in Malta as guests of the Emirates Airline Young Footballer Challenge (EYFC) 2007, which is sponsored by Emirates, the Dubai-based international airline.

The enthusiastic children aged between five and 13 years enjoyed a rigorous training session. Mr Shipwright and Mr Davis were pleasantly surprised by the familiarity these children have with regards Arsenal Football Club and their favourite Arsenal players.

At the end of the session, the children received a bag with Arsenal and Emirates gifts for their efforts.

They also took the chance to pose for photographs with Mr Shipwright, Mr Davis and Richard Felice Pace, chairman of Arsenal Supporters Club.
