AnglicareSA Foster Care Services, together with around 85 carers, children, and young people were given a special behind the scenes experience by Adelaide United, sitting in on a recent training session.

The memorable morning included a tour of Coopers Stadium in Hindmarsh, seats in the stands to watch the team train in preparation for that weekend’s game, and a meet and greet with players and coaches who took the time to chat and sign autographs.

One of the carers who attended with their children offered a heartfelt thank you: “The children had an absolutely wonderful time watching the team train and were so excited to meet the players and collect their signatures. It was such a special experience for them and one they will be talking about for a long time. We really appreciate all the work that goes on behind the scenes to make opportunities like this possible, and we are very grateful to be included. We look forward to being part of future events and experiences.”

AnglicareSA thanks the Adelaide United Football Club, and especially the players and coaches for their generosity, warmth, and genuine care in helping create such a memorable experience for our foster care community.
