At an appointment with the women’s national football team, Prince William himself became active. He tried the ball.

Prince William (39) proved on Wednesday that many members of the British Royals are often up for a joke while he visited the English women’s national soccer team. Although he showed up for the appointment in a dark blue suit and brown suede shoes, he didn’t miss out on trying his hand at ball. Before the start of the European Women’s Football Championship, the 39-year-old paid the team a visit during training.

the British “Daily Mail” has video footage of the training session released. These show, among other things, how William runs towards the football full of vigour, kicks it skillfully in the direction of the goal and then throws his hands up in celebration. In photos from the afternoon he can also be seen talking to the players, among other things.

Sweet souvenir for the children

Subsequently published the official Instagram account Prince William and his wife, Duchess Kate (40), also some pictures. It also features a special gift the team gave the royal. In one of the photos, he and two players are holding shirts with the names of William and Kate’s children in their hands. Underneath the names Louis (4), Charlotte (7) and George (8), the shirt number shows the age of the kids.

According to the Daily Mail report, Prince William also told the athletes about his daughter. He promised Charlotte to tell the footballers that she was “really good in goal”. Meanwhile, William and Kate wished the “Lionesses” the best of luck for the upcoming European Championships, which will be held in England from July 6th. The team inspire the next generation of women and girls to play football.
