Cover 300 miles as a team, by any means! for Diabetes UK; because it’s a charity close to the teams heart.

As with everything, the last year has been tough. We saw the end of our 2019/2020 season cut short and the 2020/2021 season has been stopped and started lots of times! It’s now the second time that we have had to hang up our football boots with a return date looking uncertain.

The WCFC U10s youth team wanted to come up with something that would keep us active and football fit during this lockdown, whilst making sure we helped our mental health along the way. And so the challenge was set!

Individually, each member of the team is participating and as a team we are aiming to cover 300 miles in a four week period. The idea is that these miles can be completed adhering to the current COVID-19 guidelines and in whichever way we dream up: running, walking, swimming, cycling, dribbling a football...anything goes! We decided that every half mile helps, and no distance is too little to log. Keeping us active is the important part!!

With Diabetes UK being close to the teams heart (we also advertise the charity on the back of our kits), we thought that we could raise some money and give something back whilst keeping us busy. Please donate whatever you can if you feel able to. Every penny will go directly to the charity. Thank you everyone!!
