William Hill will be giving away 200,000 5 bet certificates to the parents of kids with unique sporting talents. With odds of 1000-1, each ticket is potentially worth 5000. A parents 'pride and joy' that is currently playing for England's Men or Woman's senior team will qualify for the promotion that is sure to be hugely popular.

In order to receive the 5 free, punters will need to go to William Hill Sportsbook, place a 10 bet on any match they desire and then choose where to place their free 5 token. Tickets will most likely run out fast so parents of English football talent are advised to register early.

A William Hill spokesperson has expressed great interest in supporting 'Future English talent' and hope that the 'Back your pride and joy' will inspire others to encourage England's future stars.
