VIDEO: Kid gets hiccups singing the national anthem but still produces a great performance

This is simply fantastic

This is simply fantastic…

We’ve heard our fair share of national anthems before games but we think we’ve found our favourite rendition of a national anthem, which occurred before this Australian Baseball League game.

7-year-old Ethan Hall took to the pitch before Adelaide Bite took on the Brisbane Bandits but unfortunately for the poor little fella, he got a dose of the hiccups before the song started.

But that wasn’t about to stop Ethan from performing to the best of his ability and producing a fine performance punctuated with some percussive hiccups.

The players on both teams can be seen reacting to the boy’s effort and there’s a great moment at the end when the whole crowd rises to cheer Ethan and the players applaud his effort.

What a little trooper…
