[Archived] Blackburn Rovers Charity 5 A-side Competition.


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

The annual supporters 5 a-side competition is upon us again and it will be taking place at the JJB Soccerdome, the day before the last home game of the season against Derby County.

All money raised will be going towards the 'Jason Roberts Foundation' and we will need all our players to give the same effort last season and make a strong contribution to this cause. We will also be having a raffle and after speaking to the Foundation's representatives, then we could have some decent prizes up for grabs. So far there are the usual prizes of spirits, £50 meal voucher, signed ball, signed Jason Roberts Shirt (wil get confirmation whether it is match-worn).

The winners will get their hands on the trophy, which has been doing the rounds for the last few years and also decent prizes for relevant winners. Last season the winners (The Torrents) each got an issued European Blackburn Rovers Shirt and leading goalscorer got an official Nike matchday ball. Details of the event are as follows:-
