Notice board
Richmond Rovers raise awareness
Summer 2010: Richmond Rovers FC of Poynton near Manchester have this season followed the examples of Clubs such as FC Barcelona and Aston Villa by putting a charity on their strip rather than a sponsors logo. The Under 14's proudly sported the Teenage Cancer Trust logo on their strips this season and the boys were keen to learn more about the charity. The venture proved a great success, so much so that next season the entire club has adopted Teenage Cancer Trust as its charity to support and will engage in fund raising initiatives for Teenage Cancer Trust and their unit at Manchester's Christie Hospital. The Under 14's have had a highly successful season. As well as playing in the 1st Division for the first time this season they also went on to win the Stockport Metro Cup (pictured).
