Following the success of the inaugural event in 2025, this year’s tournament on Sunday 4 October will raise funds for the Mike Thomas Fund, Guernsey Motor Neurone and Bowel Cancer Guernsey.
Seven-a-side teams are welcome to enter for a day of friendly competition. Team entries are £500.
Alongside the football, Victoria Park will once again provide a welcoming setting for supporters and families to get behind the teams and charities.
‘We’re delighted to welcome the Charity Shield back to Victoria Park for a second year. The inaugural tournament showed just how powerful football can be in bringing people together, and we’re proud to build on that success by supporting three causes that each make an important contribution to our island community,’ said Nick Graham, chairman of the Victoria Park steering committee.
‘Victoria Park was created to be much more than a home for football – we want it to be a place that brings the community together and can make a positive difference beyond the pitch.
‘The Charity Shield captures that perfectly – a day of friendly competition, great fun and, most importantly, an opportunity to raise valuable funds and awareness for three very deserving local charities.’
‘We’re delighted to be returning to Victoria Park for the second charity football tournament,’ said Anne Brouard from Bowel Cancer Guernsey.
‘Events like this give us an important opportunity not only to raise funds, but also to increase awareness of the importance of physical activity in the prevention of bowel cancer and the importance of early diagnosis. We’re looking forward to another brilliant day that brings the community together while supporting three fantastic local causes.’
