Whitechapel FC in The Jacob Thomas Cup, and the road to the semi finals!

On 3rd October the Whitechapel Football Club took part in The Jacob Thomas cup at The Pitz'football pitches in Liverpool, running from 10am-4pm.

The event was organised by Genie in the Gutter and involved 12 different teams from various alcohol, drug and homeless organisations within the Liverpool area.

There were also people from film, theatre and music, performing various demonstrations throughout the day.

Also there through the day were various stalls, and people providing different complementary therapies for those who came to take advantage of.

The day was open for anyone to attend and be a part of, to look around or support their team.

The teams themselves were provided with refreshments throughout, and then were rewarded with a prize giving ceremony at the end.

The great news was that Whitechapel FC came in 3rd place, which is a brilliant result, particularly keeping in mind changing team members and new management!!



A massive well done to all the team for doing so well, and even more importantly all those who took part had a brilliant day.

The team have not just stopped there, they have just been put through to the semi finals of the Mental Health League Tournament  - GO WHITECHAPEL FC!!!
