A five-year-old superfan has created a Lego replica of his favourite basketball team's home arena.
Rory Kennedy, from Elderslie, Renfrewshire, spent days planning and building the model of Caledonia Gladiators' Playsport Arena.
The youngster even included the team's mascot, Maximoose, fans, a media station, and his favourite snacks, ice cream and hot dogs.

He said: "I love coming to the games and making different things from Lego, so I wanted to make my own arena.
"I get a hot dog at every game, so I made sure I could find one for my Lego character to eat in the stand and I even found all the parts to make Maximoose."
Rory was invited to meet the men's team on court before their 68-57 win against Bristol Flyers on March 16.

He is a season ticket holder and plays in the five to six year-old club, which is part of the community outreach programme.
Emma Kennedy, Rory’s mother, said: "Rory is such a big fan of the game, and seeing his Lego arena come to life and sharing it with the team was an unforgettable moment for us.
"He was very particular about the details, from the sword and shield to the hot dogs and ice cream.
"It was amazing to watch him meet his favourite players and tell them all about his design—and even more special that the team won.”
Tony McDaid, chief executive officer of Caledonia Gladiators, said: "Our fans are the heart and soul of the club, and seeing our youngest supporters channel their passion into something so creative is the highest form of appreciation we could hope for.
"Rory’s Lego masterpiece was nothing short of impressive, and it truly captured the spirit of a game day here at Playsport Arena."
Fraser Malcolm of Caledonia Gladiators men’s team, said: "It was incredible to see Rory’s Lego version of our arena.
"The level of detail he put into it was amazing, and it really shows the passion and creativity of our youngest fans.
"It's moments like these that remind us why we play the game—not just for the victories, but for the fans who support us every step of the way."
