Everton’s Junior Fans’ Forum was recently given the opportunity to discuss their goals for the 2022/23 campaign with Blues boss Frank Lampard.

The Junior Fans’ Forum – made up of 11 Evertonians aged 11-16 ­– convenes regularly to discuss key topics surrounding Everton’s supporter activity and give feedback to the Club.

In an open and engaging conversation with Lampard, the representatives explained their aims to continue improving the atmosphere at Goodison Park and received enthusiastic input from the Everton manager.

The group is formulating plans for new Goodison matchday banner and they also met with Everton senior designer Darren Rimmer to discuss their ideas for the flag, which is likely to be unveiled in the New Year.

The Junior Fans’ Forum members change each season, with teenage Evertonians encouraged to apply to be part of the group every summer.

Applicants are asked to put forward their reasons for wanting to join the panel, with the representatives then selected by the Everton Fan Engagement Team, members of the previous Junior Fans’ Forum and Club Ambassadors.
