In addition to local insurance firm General & Medical Healthcare sponsoring some of the kit for Marco's Charity Mission, two of the G&M sales team Michael Sherman and Tom Dobrowolski have also been taking part in many of the matches and helping to raise awareness of this fantastic cause.

Marco’s handpicked team Sementa 11 played toe to toe against the Sherman 11 team on August 25th at Yaxley Football Club – while spectators were somewhat limited to a handful of enthusiastically cheering colleagues and one man and his dog, £150 was nevertheless raised to further boost Marco’s charity pot.
