Once the excitement had settled down Eddie was then in charge of some relay races before heading around to visit the various age groups and finally heading into the recently opened club house.
The U's, who were contacted by fan and Hatfield Peverel coach Darren Devine, arrived at the local team's fantastic facility just in time for Eddie to lead the warm up for the U6s Sharks team.
Saturday morning before the Gillingham match saw Eddie the Eagle embark on another one of his Saturday morning football club visits and this week it was the turn of Hatfield Peverel YFC.
