Doncaster Rovers Participate In 'Our Heroes' Scheme

Posted on: Mon 10 Nov 2008

As part of a morning of themed work based around the idea of 'Our Heroes', Doncaster Rovers' full squad visited Long Toft Primary school in Stainforth.

The idea behind the scheme is that Doncaster Rovers are sporting heroes and as such heroes that the children of Long Toft had the opportunity to meet, question and have a coaching session with.

Pupils also had the opportunity to meet with adults within our school community, that help us everyday and are not always recognised. Overall, the Long Toft Heroes morning allowed the children to learn about adult roles within school, increase understanding about the discipline and excellence required to be a sports person and give the children positive role models to aspire to.
