Wanderers soccer star Colin Hendry proved his team are not only top of the Premiership table -- but also top of the class.

The Reebok favourite helped the club launch a new educational website combining fun, football and education.

Footie.net gives children, parents and teachers access to a large range of educational tools, games and information based on Key Stage Two National Curriculum objectives for seven to 11 year olds. The site was launched yesterday at Wanderer's training ground in Euxton.

Will Robson, of creators Premium TV, said: "We have created a tremendously entertaining website that combines the best in education with the mass appeal of football."
