What this two Great Britain Staff members did for charity will melt your heart…

Jon Bleby and Andy Halliday, both members of the Great Britain Men’s coaching staff decided to help raising money through Virgin Money Giving for WellChild , the national charity for sick children and Access Sport, giving disadvantaged and disabled young people sporting opportunity.



The goal was very difficult: to dribble a hockey ball each, up and down the three highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales. This was: 25 miles, 11,000 feet of ascent and descent, 24 hours total dribble time in 60 hours. Physically, mentally, psychologically, absolutely ridiculous. we want to raise funds for two very deserving charities.
