What a Lovely Sunny weekend to play football on!
We had the pleasure of facing Long Eaton Fatball in our third game of the year — and what a game it was! In sunny, breezy conditions, the fans were treated to an incredible TWELVE goals in a brilliant friendly between two teams building a fantastic friendship on and off the pitch. 🤝🔥
But the day was about far more than football.
Together, we proudly raised and donated £160 to Young Lives vs Cancer on behalf of Lindsey Stretton, wife of our midfield maestro, Keir Stretton.
To top it all off, Keir picked up BOTH our Player of the Match and the Opposition’s Player of the Match awards! 👏⚽
That’s what you call husband material — always stepping up for his wife and her incredible cause.
Recently, Lindsey completed the iconic London Marathon 2026 in support of Young Lives vs Cancer and we honestly couldn’t be more inspired by her achievement. Completing a marathon is incredible enough — doing it for such an important cause makes it even more special.
Young Lives vs Cancer supports children, young people, and their families from diagnosis onwards, helping them through treatment, recovery, and beyond. The charity also carries out vital research into the impact cancer has on young lives.
Lindsey has now raised an amazing £2,200+! 🙌
