Celtic are about to launch a Kids Commentary Challenge to give parents and kids a break during lockdown.

Monday was Day 1 of Scottish schools being closed with home PE lessons popular with lots of videos appearing on social media of kids showing off their football skills.

Taking it one stage further Celtic are inviting videos to be sent in with kids commentating on famous Celtic moments.

Ian Crocker of Sky Sports has been behind the microphone for most of the iconic moments of Celtic’s Treble Treble success but for an older generation Archie MacPherson and Arthur Montford shared some of their greatest Celtic memories.

During the original 9-in-a-row era fans tuned in to Sportscene on a Saturday night to listen to MacPherson while on a Sunday afternoon Montford would enjoy an old-fashioned stramash as he relived the action from the previous day.

Younger fans now have access to a massive catalogue of matches through You Tube and Celtic TV to hone their commentating skills, maybe one day they’ll get to sit alongside Tom Boyd to describe a future title success.
