The Prince of Wales was in the Black Country this week visiting Sporting Khalsa FC in Willenhall.
It comes as part of a campaign by the Football Association (FA), of which His Royal Highness is a patron, to recruit more people from black, Asian and mixed heritage backgrounds into refereeing roles.
Primary school pupils from the nearby Fibbersley Park Academy were among those waiting to greet the future King outside the football club's grounds, chanting his name and holding up the colourful signs they made that morning.
Fibbersley Park Academy's headteacher, Kathryn Sugars, spoke of the pupil's excitement as they prepared for the Prince's visit, saying energy was 'electric'.
"The children were absolutely thrilled," said Mrs Sugars.
