A children’s football team have created their own rendition of a classic Christmas song to raise money for charity.

Burgess Hill Town’s Under 7s have taken on the challenge of covering Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You.

The song was posted online as part of a drive to raise funds for Rockinghorse, the Brighton children’s charity, which aims to make life better for sick and disabled babies and youngsters.

The little footballers were tasked with singing a line each from the Christmas hit for a video.

The club and coaches also celebrated the festive season by giving each of the players unique Panini sticker albums of the club.

As well as a personalised sticker of themselves they received packs of stickers of other players to collect and swap with their team mates.
