Front Events has launched a six-a-side football tournament called the Financial Services Cup for charity.

The tournament will feature 60 teams who will compete at the Goals football centre in Perry Barr on Wednesday 6 July.

The event is in association with chosen charity WellChild, a national charity for sick children.

James Prosser, director of Front Events, said: “Following the success of our Financial Services Race Day which helps raise a staggering amount of money for WellChild, we’ve been looking forward to hosting more events into 2016 and beyond.

“The financial services community is known for its generosity and ability to support those events which seek to bring the industry together, particularly when it’s in aid of such a fantastic cause.

“We are therefore promising another wonderful day out for all those who attend the Financial Services Cup tournament in July and are sure that, as in previous years, there will be plenty of businesses and individuals who want to support an event which is new and exciting part of the financial services’ calendar.

“We’re really looking forward to our inaugural FS Cup, so dust off your football boots and we’ll see you there!”
