For the kids taking part in the tournament, meeting the players will be something they remember for the rest of their lives. UJIA’s Israel director, Emily Pater, said: “There has been so much excitement around Tottenham’s visit from Spurs fans and English ex-pats in Israel. We are aware of the busy schedule of the Spurs visit, and therefore we would like to thank our partners from UJIA for supporting the event and the organisation in general”. “Previous encounters, with Boris Johnson, Gareth Bale and the Welsh national team, and of course with HRH Prince William, had a significant impact on the participants and on our organisation, and we are certain the visit of the Spurs players will do the same. Such encounters are a huge boost to their motivation, ambition and self-esteem for years to come, and therefore a meaningful contributor to achieving our goals of equal opportunities and bridging social gaps. Liran Gerassi, founder and chief executive of The Equalizer, said: “It’s not every day that Jewish and Muslim kids in Israel meet together, and with top-class Premier League footballers.
