MALVERN Town are enjoying a blossoming relationship with youth club Leigh and Bransford Badgers.
All of Badgers' squads have the opportunity to be part of the matchday experience at the HDAnywhere Community Stadium.
The youngsters warm up with the first team, walk on to the pitch alongside the players and then act as ball boys and girls during the game.
First up to grab the opportunity was the Saints under 12s for Malvern's clash with Tividale.
Badgers run over 20 teams from under sevens upwards.
