Pentland Athletic FC 2015s to the Blackpool Cup 2025
Donation protected
Hi there,
I am running the Glentress Winter 10K on November 16th to raise funds to help send my son Ethan's team Pentland Athletic FC 2015s to the Blackpool Cup in April 2025.
A bit about the Pentland Athletic FC 2015 team:
A new team (as of 2024) with a home base in Midlothian, these boys are racking up wins against some of the the best teams in Scotland. We have travelled to Inverness, Ayr, and Perth to play local and pro youth teams as well as playing more locally here in Edinburgh.. and these kids are just amazing. My son Ethan is keeper for the Pele team and we are thrilled to be a part of this great group of coaches, parents and kids.
A bit about the Blackpool Cup:
"Ever since its beginnings in 1994, the Blackpool Cup has always had a wide range of international participants. Each year, the participants represent around ten nationalities. Alongside the fixed participants from England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and Northern Ireland, another five nationalities from the continent register every year. The secret? Every team has its own agenda: one team really goes for the international competition, whereas another goes for the attractions of Blackpool and the other wants to soak up the magic of football icons such as Manchester United and FC Liverpool."
The Pentland Athletic FC 2015 team are ready to crush this tournament & 100% going for the international competition!!
As one might expect, it's pretty pricey to participate in this tournament which requires overnight stays and participation fees. I'm raising funds for the team given how pricey it is to give the kids the opportunity to play teams far and wide.
