1874 Walking Football Club is not just a club, it's family.
The Tommy Ward WF Tournament (mixed teams) was held yesterday to raise funds for St. Luke's Hospice which is close to so many's hearts.
Organised, fantastically, by Kate S, it proved a smashing event and fun was had by all.
Besides the team names being Everton hero's (Tommy was a true Toffee fan, as is Kate), the whole day went swimmingly, the rain only appearing during the last set of games. Rooney's Rascals (I'll leave that with you...) were the overall winners.
Thank you to the bakers (there's some talented Mary Berry's in there), the wonderful volunteers, the referees, the supporters, the people who donated prizes, everybody who donated on the day and for those unable to attend who gave on the justgiving page and just a general thanks for everyone for being involved.
All the generous donations have resulted in today's total which stands at £1241.50.
Walking Football is such a joy to play, but the real joy is the Walking Football family who always spring into action at a time of need 😊💚
