Ahead of the new season, PayPal, the official payments partner of The FA, are offering 15 grassroots football managers the chance to win a money-can’t-buy ‘Matchday Masterclass’ at the home of England Football, St George’s Park.

Each of the lucky winning managers will be able to share the experience with a player from their team. On the day, winners will channel the likes of Southgate, Lingard, Pickford, Delph and co as they’re put through their paces by FA-qualified coaches for the ultimate football experience. The coveted experience will include:

* a technical speed, agility and quickness session for players
* a coaching theory session for managers
* a training session on SGP’s hallowed indoor 3G pitch
* a meet-and-greet with a former England legend

To be in with a chance of winning this amazing prize, all you need to do is get your manager to download and register your team on The FA Matchday App. With The FA Matchday App, paying and collecting match fees is now faster and simpler. No more chasing and carrying cash. Everything you need to manage your Matchday, all in one place.

There are also ten PayPal-branded kit bundles (worth up to £200) up for grabs as runner-up prizes, so there really is no excuse not to be Matchday ready. You’ll need to be quick, however, as the last chance to enter this competition is Monday 9th September 2019.

Not sure if you’re Matchday ready? Here’s a checklist to follow. If the answer is ‘yes’ to all of the below, you should be ready to go:

* does your league register their players in FA Whole Game System?
* does your team have a team manager or coach assigned to them in Whole Game System?
* do The FA have an E-Mail Address for you already?
