Story

In June 2020, Brody Sims, one of our current Witchford Colts FC U10 players was diagnosed with a brain tumour. He was operated on immediately, underwent Radiotherapy and Chemo from July 2020 to February 2021. Incredibly, Brody was back playing competitive football with Witchford Colts FC by September 2021.

Our superstar and his family were supported heavily by Brainbow during this tough time. Brainbow is the UK's first rehabilitation service integrated in standard NHS care for children and young people with brain tumours based at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. Local charities - Anna's Hope, Tom's Trust and The Joshua Tarrant Trust work tirelessly with the NHS to fund and provide a pioneering rehabilitation service in the East of England for all children with brain tumours.

We are excited to combine our passion to support the work Brainbow are doing with Brody's love of football on 14th August. 

Date & Time: Sunday 14th August 2022 (8am-8pm)
Address: Witchford Rec, Bedwell Hey Lane, CB6 2JN

What to expect: 12 hour non-stop 5-a-side football match, BBQ & refreshments, special appearances from pro players, prize raffles and other fun competitions (think the cross bar challenge, etc.),  professional photos & more!

Please join us.  Please support us.  Thank you!
