0 Comments | Express & Echo; Exeter (UK), Jul 27, 2010
A FOOTBALL fun day was organised for all the family in Exeter.
As well as a football tournament, the festival of football event featured trade stands, skills demonstrations and coaching tips plus a large funfair, restaurant, bar and outside catering.
Andrew Wilson, one of the organisers, said: “Having spent many years dragging the family from tournament to tournament, following one sibling through their footballing youth, a group of us decided to organise a tournament that was a day out for all the family.”
Exeter Racecourse was transformed with football pitches for tournaments for ladies, men’s, academy/centre of excellence, masters/ veterans and the South West Charity Trophy five-aside.
Half of all profits will be donated to various charities including Help for Heroes, Devon Air Ambulance, The RNLI and The Bobby Moore Fund.
