Who are we? - Thank you for taking time to visit our JustGiving page. Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association (AMYA), in collaboration with British Red Cross, is holding a 24-hour football match to raise funds for charity in memory of the 22 victims of the Manchester arena attacks. The event is part of an ongoing effort by AMYA to raise funds for charities in its Mercy4Mankind Charity Challenge.

Enough about ourselves, what is the event? - The event will see 48 teams, players of all ages and abilities take part in the 24 hour, non-stop football marathon at Powerleague Trafford Sportsdome, Trafford Park, Manchester. Each game will last for 1 hour with no breaks and continuous football played for 24 hours.

Great! When is it? - 24th March 2018 @ 6pm till 25th March 2018 @ 6pm
