A sporty Longridge man has made it into the UK's first national footballing freestyler team.

John Farnworth, 20, of Lower Lane, passed trials for the Pringles Football Freestyle Squad on Sunday.

He will tour the country with the team at the end of this month, and will compete on July 1 to find the Ultimate Pringles Freestyler.

The winner gets the chance to train with footballing greats like Steven Gerrard and Robbie Keane.
