ELLA TOONE DELIGHTS FANS AT PEPSI MAX HIDDEN PITCH IN LONDON
Representing the spirit of the Hidden Pitches, Ella Toone possesses a unique ability - both on and off the field - to inspire while challenging conventions that may limit accessibility to the beautiful game. Onlookers gathered in a flurry of excitement as Ella was spotted exchanging skills, laughs and words of encouragement with passersby playing on the Hidden Pitch. The Lioness legend then assumed refereeing and coaching duties during an enthralling 2v2 football tournament, whilst stopping to engage with onlookers and posing for pictures with the marvelling crowd.
Speaking of the launch,
The Hidden Pitch came alive once again the following day, enticing passersby and football lovers alike to pause from their evening adventures and join in the fun. With a goal to improve accessibility to the beautiful game, the Hidden Pitch reveals itself when passersby grab a can of Pepsi MAX and scan it at a purpose-built, specialty vending machine with an element of surprise: instead of cans, it dispenses footballs. Upon release of the ball, an epic laser display will project a 2v2 pitch outline onto the street, marking the start of a 10-minute, 2v2, match session. Whether it's a crossbar challenge, a gentle kick around or a classic penalty shootout - the choice is entirely yours!
Following the debut of the Hidden Pitches activation in London , the vending machine is heading north to continue celebrations in the days leading into the UEFA Champions League Final at Wembley. Appearing at before culminating at , the message is clear: football can - and should - be enjoyed by all, wherever they are, as long as there's a ball.
