Domov Sue Ryder's Director Matej Lejsal took part in the tournament as a member of the Czech team. It was the Polish City Club, however,  who were victorious for the second year running, taking on Fitch Ratings in the final and going on to defeat a team of premiership legends.  250 people from the world of commerce and diplomacy joined Sue Ryder Ambassadors and supporters to take part in the event held at The David Beckham Academy.

Speaking on behalf of Sue Ryder Care, Ben Simms: “We cannot thank our participants enough!  Hard and furious football played with passion, followed by a superb after-party at IndigO2 made this a night to remember – and all for a fantastic cause!”

The event was hosted by Martin Peters MBE, who coached on the night, and involved premiership legends Tony Cottee, John Beresford, Rob Lee, Ray Parlour, Peter Bonetti and Paul Walsh.  All money raised goes to support the work of our sister organisations in southern Africa and eastern Europe.

Football legend, Martin Peters MBE, said, “I was delighted to support the Sue Ryder International Cup - it was a great evening with all the excitement and drama of a premiership final.  As well as having the opportunity to play against legends of the great game, football fans helped raise vital funds for a very worthwhile cause.”
