Freestyle footballer Jamie Knight visits Hillcrest Primary School in Downham Market

Soccer skills took on a whole new meaning for pupils at Hillcrest Primary School, Downham, this week when they were visited by ace freestyle footballer Jamie Knight.

Jamie, who is in the top ten freestyle footballers in the world, spent two days and evenings with the 500 pupils showing them tricks and flicks with the ball.

He demonstrated his own skills and followed it up with some instruction and help so that the youngsters could try it for themselves.
