This June, over a day and a half, 92 men and women are coming together to raise vital funds for three charities, by aiming to break the record for the longest games of rugby.

LooseHeadz and Wooden Spoon in partnership with the Lions Trust are aiming to break two Guinness World Record with concurrent games for men and women. The target to beat is currently 30 hours 29 minutes 41 seconds for a men’s game and for the women’s record is 24 hours, 5 minutes, and 15 seconds.

The aim is to raise over £100,000 – our brave or foolhardy players need your support…

Here’s the great causes they’ll be supporting:
