AFC Wimbledon mascot Haydon the Womble will be appearing on this week’s episode of recently launched kid’s show Nick Kicks.
Nick Kicks, launched on Nicktoons in February, is a live-action football highlights show for kids. Haydon the Womble will take on Spongebob Squarepants in the weekly Spongebob vs. Mascot challenge, featuring a penalty shootout with a fun twist – some of the footballs will be trick ones filled with feathers or paint.
Haydon ready for action
Nickelodeon UK announced in January that for the next 2 football seasons as well as the remainder of the 15/16 season, they will be in a partnership with The Football League to cover all 72 clubs in the league on Nick Kicks.
Shaun Harvey, chief executive of The Football League said: “Offering a fun insight into life at clubs up and down the country, Nick Kicks will help us to engage and inspire a new generation of Football League fans”
In addition to highlights, Nick Kicks will offer viewers a behind the scenes look at the Football league with visits to the local clubs.
The show, presented by Roman Kemp and Rachel Stringer also has its own page on the Nicktoons site where additional content such as polls and quizzes are available.
Cheer on Haydon the Womble in his challenge against Spongebob Squarepants at 8am on Saturday, May 28 on Nicktoons.
