Polis & Latchi Lions get to play at Wembley!
A group of 14 Lions and Lionesses made the trip to Ayia Napa for a weekend of Walking Football on the 20th-22nd February played out at the Wembley Park Cyprus Centre with matches played over the Saturday and Sunday.
The whole weekend was about Fun, Friendship and Football and it was certainly that.
Starting on the Friday night with all the Polis team enjoying some great food, drinks and good company in Ayia Napa.
Saturday was match day. The format for the football was a round robin League with matches played out under the glorious Cyprus sunshine.
With matches against Wembley Xylofagou Men, Pyla Predators Men, Polis & Latchi Men and a mixed team of Polis Lion’s and Lionesses team. All of the matches were competitive and of a high standard with no quarter given.
It was great to see all of the Polis and Latchi players playing some very good football and being played in the right spirit. Especially the Polis Men’s verses the Polis mixed team the where no quarter given from either team.
After all of the matches on the Saturday it was down to a night of good company, food, drinks and entertainment at the match venue Wembley Park Centre and good night was had by all before then heading back to Ayia Napa where a number of Lions and Lionesses carried on the fun and friendship in a local bar till the early hours.
It was up early on the Sunday morning for a hearty breakfast back at the Wembley Park Centre before having a few fun mixed footy games and then heading back home (tired and weary) to Polis and the surrounding areas.
It definitely was a weekend of Fun, Friendship and Football.
