Fans Tournament Globe Arena
Posted: Sun May 10, 2015 11:38 pmJust letting SV readers know about a charity event organised at the football club this coming Saturday (16th May), hoping to see a few of you down there and perhaps even entice a couple to get involved/come out of football retirement.
Following on from last years successful fans tournament in aid of RMHC and the training ground developement fund (involved a challenge match between the MADKATS and McDonalds staff, followed by a 4 team knockout competition), there will be an expanded 6 team 11-aside fans tournament taking place at the Globe. The competition is in aid of St Johns Hospice, which was FCoMs nominated charity for last season.
The event kicks off in the Wright & Lord suite with team registrations and group draw from 11am, with the first 30 min game kicking off at noon. Six sides will be divided into two groups, playing each other once before the winners of each group will face each other in the final for the 'yet to be named' trophy which has been donated by FCoM.
The teams (managers/organisers):
MADKATS
Second Life (Nigel Boras)
Morecambe Supporters (Pat Stoyles)
Project Shrimp (Dom Lancaster) - 2014 winners
Staff United (Ground stewards)
Nomads FC (Adrian Rigby)
There are still places available to be on the Nomads team - it'll cost you a £10, for this your team gets at least an hour of footy on the Globe first team pitch, get changed in the first team dressing rooms, tunnel, name read over the PA system etc. PM if you are interested in playing; you'll be keeping MarkS company!
The PMG is open for spectators, friends, family etc, with the W&L suite open for refreshments. We'd kindly ask for a £1 donation in aid of the charity. There will also be a raffle for a 2015/16 MFC adult terraced season ticket (donated by FCoM) which all players are entered into, additional tickets available for £1.
Finally a big thank you in advance from myself to the club (Mark Dixon in particular), community sports and the developement squad physio for providing first aiders, the ground staff for perparing the surface, and ground stewards for giving up their time to allow this event to take place.
