Lioness and Manchester City player, Jess Park, stars in an emotive video to celebrate a summer of sport in Manchester this year.
The popular England Forward, who has been on loan to Everton for the previous season, delivers an inspiring poem, recognising how sport unites people in Manchester, both on and off the pitch.
Written by Mancunian poet, David Scott, more commonly known as ARGH! Kid, the poem was created for Printworks and highlights how the people of Manchester “become one” when they watch sport together, transcending race, gender, and sexuality.
The collaboration celebrates the upcoming calendar of exciting sporting events being shown at Printworks’ sports bars and venues, including The Ashes, Formula One, Boxing and FIFA Women’s World Cup, which takes place in Australia this month. Printworks will be welcoming World Cup supporters of all teams from July 20th, with morning matches being available to watch live at Walkabout, Yates, Bierkeller and Hard Rock Café and additional matches being shown at Boom Battle Bar and O’Neill’s.
Jason Shay, Manchester Printworks said, “Watching sport is one thing that truly unites people, and this is something we want to celebrate at Printworks. We’re thrilled to have Jess involved in this campaign and this bespoke poem really showcases what Printworks and the sporting community is all about. This summer, there’ll be plenty of matches and a wide variety of sport available to enjoy at our fantastic venues around the complex, as well as exciting food and drink offerings for families and friends to sit and dine whilst cheering on their favourite teams.”
