Storrar Cowdry in fundraising efforts for charities

Storrar Cowdry hosted a charity 5-a-side football tournament in support of Comic Relief on 15 March.

The event was attended by 12 teams comprising local professionals and businesses, and raised over £600.

Storrar Cowdry’s hopefuls

 

Storrar Cowdry’s team finished joint third, bowing out bravely in the semi-finals against eventual winnners Total Footcare from Mold.

Paul Coombs, who organised the event, said: “We are extremely grateful to everyone who contributed their time and donations to make this tournament possible. We hope that this can become a regular event, as it was clearly a hotly-contested competition.”

The event was held at Deeside Leisure Centre on their state of the art 3G pitches, which had been kindly made available to host the tournament.

Movember proves a huge success

In November, Storrar Cowdry raised over £800 as part of Movember, the international month of moustache-growing in aid of men’s health charities Prostate Cancer UK and the Institute of Cancer Research.
