Longest Football Match ever 4 School in India
Hi, thanks for visiting my page.
I am involved in supporting a charity event which will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous football match ever using 2 squads of only 18 players. The current record stands at 37 hours and we are aiming for 40 hours plus. The players have to sleep at the pitch side when not playing, only getting 5 minutes "comfort" breaks for every hour they play. This is an immense commitment physically and mentally but more importantly it?s for a great cause –
To raise £30,000 to build a school for some of the poorest and oppressed children of the Dalit Community in India. All money raised will go to an organisation called Relief, Education and Development who build the Schools.
Please view the 2 minute long video link on the home page of www.football4dalits.com
If you are moved as I was to be involved then please give generously.
I really appreciate your support - with all my thanks.
For further information please go to our website www.football4dalits.com
I am only 16 years old so i'll be one of the youngest on the team.
