Nivea Helps Transform a Team’s Footballing Fortunes
Amateur football may never be viewed the same way again. That’s because this season, a group of passionate Sunday league footballers participated in a life-changing experience, thanks to NIVEA FOR MEN.
The adventure began with a national competition and a public vote, resulting in an amateur team, Ivory FC, winning the chance to be coached, drilled, trained and prepared by a group of the finest players in the world — a group which included Ray Wilkins, Ray Clemence and Terry Venables.
While the coaching was intense, the challenge bar was lifted to even greater heights when Ivory FC found out that their experience would culminate in a championship game against an English Legend team — a game that would prove to be the greatest moment in the history of Ivory FC, as it showed the footballing world that a lot of heart, hard work and effort can produce miracles.
But miracles don’t come without a price, and before their ultimate game, Ivory FC team members were given the full treatment as a world-class club, with a regimen that included:
• Support and workout advice from the best world-class physio’s
• Counselling on nutrition and health
• Umbro kits
• Workouts with England and FA coaches
• The game of a lifetime against an English Legend team
The Nivea Great Football Experiment didn’t just open doors of opportunity for a group of amateur footballers, but also answered an important question: Can an amateur group achieve success against a group of seasoned professionals, given the right training and nutritional regimen?
Expert training and world-class nutrition go hand in hand, and a good training regimen also includes good skin care. That’s why athletes use NIVEA FOR MEN; they know the value and benefits of clean, healthy skin.
In the end, The Great Football Experiment gave a group of Sunday footballers the greatest championship season of their lives — and the opportunity to inspire a nation.
