Players from the Maidenhead United men’s first team got involved in a poetry session as Maidenhead’s Big Read returned at the weekend. This year’s event followed the theme of ‘Get Moving’ and saw players from Maidenhead United entertain an audience of around 100 people with some poetry. Some of the Magpies read a piece of poetry and were joined by under 11s players who did the same. “It’s really great, because the theme of this year is Get Moving,” Stephan Stephan, chair of Maidenhead’s Big Read, said. On Sunday, young poets showcased their talents in an Open Mic Poetry session, hosted by poet Coral Rumble.
