The Stevenage FC Supporters’ Team, affectionately known as Badgers FC, have been working hard to organise a tournament which will raise vital funds for Mitchell Cole’s brother Ben, who is climbing Kilamanjaro in his memory.
The Mitchell Cole Memorial Tournament will take place at Wodson Park, home of Ware FC, on Saturday 4th May and the first game starts at 10am – the tournament itself will come to a close at around 4pm.
There will be a bar & tea bar open for the day and it is free to watch – there will be collection buckets all around so please donate if you can, as all money raised is going towards Ben Cole's charity trek up Kilamanjaro.
Participating in the tournament will be Badgers FC, as well as fans’ teams from Cambridge, Barnet, London Carlisle and AFC Wimbledon and there will also be a Ben Cole XI, which will consist of family/friends of Ben & Mitchell.
It will be a league format with the top team being the winners of the "Mitchell Cole Memorial Trophy". All are welcome to come and watch and if you’re available to help with anything then please get in contact with Keith Bell at the following email address: keith_sbfc17@hotmail.co.uk
