Non League Day

£10,000 for prostate cancer if 50,000 people attend matches

This weekend sees the annual Non-League Day.

Non-League Day provides a platform for clubs to promote the importance of affordable volunteer led community football while giving fans across the country the chance to show support for their local non-league side.

Many non-league clubs are almost exclusively volunteer run, with money taken at the turnstiles often funding thriving youth set-ups, projects and facilities which are of benefit to the whole community.

If you aren’t travelling to support  Oxford United at Southend United this Saturday then Oxford City, Clanfield, Wantage Town and North Leigh are all at home so why not pop along and take a look?

It’s for a great cause as well.  Football Conference sponsors, Vanarama, will donate £10,000 towards the fight against prostate cancer if 50,000 people attend a match across the non-league pyramid throughout the weekend.

If you are thinking of going to Court Place Farm then Oxford City are offering a concessionary rate (£6.00) at the turnstyle to any person showing their season ticket from a Premier, Championship, League 1 or League 2 Club.  In addition, that evening, the ska-mad band, Hope & Glory, will be playing in the Clubhouse. Anyone attending the match can claim a ticket for the gig for half price (£2.50) from City's club shop.
