Story

Running the great north run 2018 for Olly Mckenna’s  charity  

Olly is a massive part of our football team - Gateshead FC Juniors Blacks U11's. He is also a very good runner (gateshead Harriers)  and rugby player (Westoe). Sport is really important to him.

Olly is  currently having cancer treatment at the RVI Newcastle and wants to help raise money to support other similar aged children going through the same experience. Please visit the main TEAM OLLY page below for more information. 

As the team coach, I have been fortunate enough to have him in our team and with everyones determination we have had some really great games and competitions.

An uncompromising player who has left his mark on most opponents with his tackling !!, he is an all round good leader on the pitch, and a great example to the other boys.

Olly is our Captain.
