Fleetwood team stand out among teams from around UK
The 15th Lytham Disability Football Tournament was staged at AKS School, with 34 teams from England, Scotland and Northern Ireland taking part.
The teams were divided into six round-robin groups and the group winners were Belfast City, Bradford City, Danby Rovers, Dunton & Broughton, Fleetwood Town A and UPFC Focus. Every player who took part received a trophy.
The event was organised as always by Luca Lanzini, who told The Gazette: “It was an amazing day of sport, competition, friendship and sunshine. The tournament is a milestone in the disability football calendar.
“I am already planning the 2027 tournament and talks are taking place with teams in Europe.”
Luca thanked Lytham Round Table and Lytham Recycling Centre for all their support but added: “There are some heavy costs that I cannot afford to cover myself and so I'm seeking out community support and funding. I will struggle next year without support.”
