Chorley 'goalie' nets draw win
5:03pm Wednesday 27th August 2008
Like her idol Joe Hart, Chorley youngster, Ashley Conroy stepped forward to make a number of great saves at Manchester City’s first home game of the season against West Ham last Sunday.
To celebrate the launch of the new Manchester City healthplan from HealthSure, fans at the stadium were invited to don a pair of oversized goalie gloves and make a series of great saves from shots fired by the HealthSure promotional team for their chance to win a number of great prizes.
Mirroring the team’s excellent performance on the pitch, Ashley, eight, saved three shots on target and will go forward into an exclusive draw to win the chance to watch the Manchester City squad in training at Carrington.
The stadium event marks the start of HealthSure’s partnership with Manchester City Football Club.
The two ‘teams’ have come together to design a healthplan to help keep fans healthy, well and fit to support city.
From as little as £2.76, the new Manchester City healthplan will enable fans to meet the rising costs of everyday and essential healthcare treatments.
The plan will help cover the cost of a whole host of regular essential healthcare treatments including eye tests, dental checks, regular health screens and complementary therapies.
