The Ashton Boys Under-16s football team were planning to visit Hannoverin July this year to play Eintracht Hannover, as well as visiting Hannover 96 stadium and Olympic Centre, Herrenhausen Gardens etc. Unfortunately this is not possible this year, but they plan to invite Eintracht to visit Bristol in 2013. It is hoped that this will become a regular fixture in the Bristol-Hannover youth and sport calendar. Bristol-Hannover Council will give financial support for this project.
