The Tournament (2017)
I asked Ryan to outline details for St Georges Day Festival, over to you Ryan……..
We have morning and afternoon sessions for U7 teams between 11.30 – 13.30 and U8 between 14.00 – 16-00, Each team will play a minimum of 4 games, 15 minutes one way, and everyone will be given a prize at the end of the festival. Each player will be allocated 2 entry passes for their parents to enter the festival.
As it is a Charity Event there is a charge for the tournament of just £20, per team which will go to the worthy charities, Army Benevolent Fund (The Soldiers Charity), Trinity Hospice and Love Lowther.
There are already teams from across the Fylde & Wyre signed up but there is still room for more so if you are involved with a grass roots team please get in touch with me Ryan 07834 733428 ryan.vaughan@afcfylde.co.uk for a Booking Form.
