Footballers don Nacoa kit for CFC Shalford charity match

Sunday League team reunited to raise money for Nacoa

Footballers don Nacoa kit for CFC Shalford charity match

Passionate Nacoa supporter, Martin Pratt, reunited his old Sunday League team for the CFC Shalford charity football match in Essex on 24th March. CFC Shalford kindly provided the club’s pitch and home and away kits for the event which raised £290.

It was a very hectic match with the result going against my team (9-6) but it was great to score the final goal of the game. Everyone enjoyed themselves and I wonder if it could now be an annual event.

You are not alone

Remember the Six "C"s

I didn’t cause it
I can’t control it
I can’t cure it
I can take care of myself
I can communicate my feelings
I can make healthy choices
