The Didcot-based charity is back with its popular football tournament at Wallingford Sports Park and needs your team

Do you live, sleep and breathe the beautiful game? Would you love to have a kick about while raising money for charity?

The popular Play2Give football tournament is back this summer at Wallingford Sports Park on Sunday, 9th July, for six-a-side teams to raise money for children, health, and disability causes right here on our doorstep.

Oxford Children’s Hospital, Headway Oxfordshire, SSNAP and Helen and Douglas House are the charities expected to receive a slice of funds from what is set to be a brilliant match of the day.

The event which kickstarted the charity in 2007 will return for its 12th year, with 2022 champions, ADT Decorating, keen to retain the cup for another victorious year.

Last year’s event which returned to Oxfordshire after a five-year break saw 16 teams compete for The P2G Paediatric Eye Fund sponsored cup, with squads including boxers, army squadrons, barbers, teams of friends, office workers, and even bereaved dads and a team of Didcot dads and the P2G Heroes FC.

Our football tournaments over the years have netted in the region of £42,000 for local causes, including young hospital patients and adults living with brain injuries.

Pitch side fun for children, a bar and hot food, stalls, charity raffle and music will all help to make this a great family day out.

Entries cost £60 per team and registration ends on June 29th.
