Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A some of you will know I coach kids rugby and unfortunately the wife of a fellow coach is currently undergoing chemotherapy to treat a re-occurrence of cancer. As a gesture of support  fellow coaches, family and friends are undertaking a 24 hour continuous game of 7 a-side football.  The game will run without a break starting at 7:00 pm on Friday 4th of December finishing at 7:00 pm on Saturday 5th of December with each of us committing to a minimum of 6 hours participation, spread across the 24hr period.

We are raising funds for the  Borders Cancer Care Centre at the Borders General Hospital (www.thedifference.org.uk) - a local charity benefiting cancer patient care across our region.

I hope you are able to support me in what will be a physically demanding and sleep depriving challenge by digging deep and contributing what you can towards this deserving cause.
