It’s no yolk – Spartans aim to top 300!
Spartans Community Football Academy have launched their annual Easter Egg Collection – and the Ainslie Park-based team are once again aiming to ensure that no local child goes without an Easter Egg this year.

Can they make it? You can do your bit to help by laying donating an egg at the Academy at Ainslie Park by next Thursday (24 March)!
