First in Asia to be Player Escorts at UEFA Champions League
Five “Little Champions” from Singapore have recently marched onto the iconic Old Trafford football pitch for the UEFA Champions League fifth Group Stage match between Manchester United FC and Besiktas JK in Manchester. The roaring audience, bright stadium lights and exuberant atmosphere can be overwhelming for these young player escorts, yet giving them an experience they will remember for life. They are also the first from Asia to escort world-class players at this major event.
Undoubtedly, this must have been a “star kid” moment for every child on the field. This is made possible by the “Little Champions” programme, a joint promotion between MasterCard and Standard Chartered Bank where winners are picked based on the highest number of transactions on their SCB MasterCard credit cards.
To be a player escort, the child must be aged between seven and nine, 1.1meters to 1.3meters tall and proficient in English. Standard Chartered MasterCard credit card holders have to register at http://www.standardchartered.com.sg/littlechampions from now till 31 March 2010 (inclusive) and charge a minimum of SGD300 each month to their card to participate in the programme. Customers who do not register but still spend the minimum amount within the promotional period will be eligible to win UEFA Champions League branded MasterCard premiums.
