Prince William, Prince Arthur, and Prince Harry Get Playfully Competitive During a Christmas Eve Soccer Game

Prince William, Prince Harry, and Prince Arthur showed their competitive sides when they played in the annual Sandringham Football Match in King's Lynn, England, on Christmas Eve.

Playing soccer together over the holidays has become a tradition for the royal trio, who donned black-and-yellow jerseys reading "Blackhorse Inn," as they teamed up on the field alongside workers from the Sandringham Estate.

Harry might have had the upper hand since he got so much practice playing during his official tour of South Africa in November, but it looked like Will and Arthur held their own.

Between church services, afternoon tea, and a lively gift-opening ceremony, the soccer game is just one of many festive traditions that the royal family holds dear.

Hundreds of well-wishers gathered, hoping to catch a glimpse of Prince George and Princess Charlotte as the Royal Family attend the traditional Christmas Day church service.
