Wainwrights support Charity Football Match.
Our Commercial Director, Adam Benson, is the captain of Hardly Athletic, a Leeds-based Charity Football team.
The team plays games, on a monthly basis, against other ‘Charity’ teams from the Yorkshire and Humberside area.
On 14th Jan, they took on York Corinthians, in a game sponsored by Wainwrights.
This was Hardly Athletic's third ever fixture, whereas Corinthians have been established for 20 years and play weekly.
Despite this, Hardly took an early two goal advantage…however Corinthian’s overall quality saw them run out 6-3 victors.
The £250 raised yesterday went to the Club’s chosen cause, #ANDYSMANCLUB, the amazing men’s suicide prevention charity...taking the total funds raised, so far, to £765.
Adam commented: “We thoroughly enjoy playing our games against other clubs. It’s great fun…and we’re raising money for some fantastic causes along the way. Huge thanks to Gavin and the Wainwrights team for their support! We’re already looking forward to our next fixture.”
Great work Adam and the Hardly Athletic team.
