Harry Leads Out Newport as They Unlock Keys

Harry Cullen is only ten years old but is something of a Rodney Parade veteran. He has been a mascot for several seasons now and is also a member of the ball boy team. Furthermore, Harry who attends Lliswerry Junior School has quite a reputation on the field as a player with Pill U11 and the Newport Schools U11 team.

Harry comes from a family of staunch Newport Supporters so it was fitting that he lead out the team with captain Dai Pattison on the day that Newport faced a tough test against local rivals Cross Keys. Keys came with a reputation to maintain but Newport, perhaps with some inspiration from Harry, won through in a tense and exciting contest.

Before kick off Harry met his Newport heroes Sam Waldron and Mike Poole for the traditional photo shoot.
