BOLTON Wanderers star Kaiyne Woolery showed off his dance moves after scoring a goal and netted £100 for charity.

The Bolton striker had been challenged on Twitter by fan Luke Stones to celebrate his next strike by doing hip-hop dance move, the dab, and earning a wedge of cash for a good cause.

To his surprise, Woolery took up his challenge and strutted his stuff after scoring in a 4-2 EFL Cup defeat at Blackpool.

“I don’t know what possessed me to be honest — the dab is a big thing in America, or in rap videos so I thought it would be cool to see a Bolton Wanderers player do it. I didn’t really expect him to reply,” explained Luke, who lives in Bromley Cross.

“When he got back to me it took off on Twitter. It made by day when he did it, so I’m happy to pay up.

“It brought the fans together, to be honest, and had a positive impact. It’s been a good couple of months and it seemed to enhance the vibe.”

For the uninitiated, the dab is a popular celebration in American sports, most notably football, and is now being picked up on dance floors around the world. On Wikipedia it is described as a move which resembles “sneezing into your elbow.”

“You kind of put your head to your elbow and point the other way,” Luke explained. “Paul Pogba does it.”

Woolery collected his bet in person and he and Luke presented it to children’s hospice Derian House, along with a signed Wanderers shirt.

“He challenged me and I took it up – I’m just happy he paid the money because it all goes to a good cause,” the 21-year-old told The Bolton News.

“I got the tweet in pre-season, just before I played against Crewe, and he said ‘if you score and do the dab, I’ll give £100 to the charity of your choice.’ But I thought he was lying.

“I waited for my first proper game of the season and scored. When I jumped into the crowd a few fans were shouting in my ear ‘dab, dab, dab,’ and a lot seemed to know about it.

“It’s amazing how it snowballed from one person tweeting me. I got booked for jumping into the crowd but Luke hasn’t said yet whether he’s helping me with the fine.”

Woolery stopped for photos with a number of the children at Derian House who were enjoying the facilities.

“It’s an incredible place, even down to the decoration, vibrant colours, no one feels down – it seems a happy place to be and you can see why families come back here,” he said.

“I’ll definitely be back. I said to Derian House fundraiser Sophie that I’d bring some of the lads back for a FIFA tournament towards the end of the year.

“It’s heart-breaking to see what some kids and their families have to go through but you see places like this bring a bit of happiness back, and as a club we should support that.”
