The Team Jacob 5-a-side Fundraiser on Saturday 27 December 2014

Report by the Organizer, John Gowen

The event was a great success. Over £2,000 was raised and the total is still growing which is fantastic.

  • Congratulations goes to Spencer Kavanagh’s Manor Boys who won the cup. Spencer coaches our U6s and his Manor boys play out of Kings College on Saturday afternoons.
  • AI All-Stars won the plate. AI Construction had sponsored the tournament and were coached by Liam McKane our U16B team Manager.

Thank you to all the following people:

  • All 20 teams who took part and thanks to all the teams that weren’t able to field a team but helped in other ways.
  • A big thank you to all who donated some fantastic raffle prizes and food.
  • Tony Doherty & Dave Holden for organising all the fixtures and collating all the results.
  • Our 4 referees Dave Cresswell, John Gannon, Austin Schofield and Tyler who had the hardest jobs of all.
  • Also our pitch marshals Mark Holinrake and Michael Gowen.
  • Our photographer Alan Rhodes.
  • Our Tournmamet sponsorer Liam McKane.
  • To Kerry Byrne, Denise Kiely and Sioban Cresswell for the raffle works.
  • To goals South Ruislip for donating the 4 floodlight pitches and trophies.
  • Steve Roche for all the advertising and website works.
  • Rob Cousins for dealing with all the funds.
  • Brian Mustil for donating trophies.

She won’t want me to say this  but my biggest thanks goes to Marian Gowen who spent days organising prizes, food and helped sell over £500 worth of raffle tickets.

Please keep Jacob in your thoughts and we’ll keep our fingers crossed for a speedy recovery.

Well done to all at Ruislip Rangers.
