The football day was created because Jonny
and Rick Wates wanted to celebrate Will's life and raise some
money for WWMT while doing it. Will was always playing football
in the back garden at home and was a passionate supporter
of Chelsea football club. Jonny and Rick wanted the day to
reflect this in some way and booked Stamford Bridge (the home
of Chelsea) for a summers night of football. There were three
teams. Jonny captained the white team, Rick the blue and Rory
Watson (a school friend of Will's) the red team.
After three hard fought matches Jonny Wates lifted the cup
that was presented by Lady Wates. Rick's team took a valiant
second place and Rory's team the bronze.
It was a great day which ended up raising £1500 for
the WWMT. Thank you to all the players and supporters for
making this possible.
