Urmston Meds Eagles are hosting a charity football match on Sunday 31st July 2022 at Trafford Football Club to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, a cause close to our hearts and so many associated to the team.
Two of our team have sadly both lost their dads due to undiagnosed heart conditions. Dom Davidson lost his dad, Don Davidson on 6th November 2014 and Tom Coy lost his dad, Steve Coy on 16th January 2020. What did they both have in common? Aside from being great men, devoted to their families, at different times, they both coached Urmston Meadowside Eagles and won the Timperley & District Junior Football League Division 1 Title.
Steve was the Urmston Meadowside Eagles manager from 2001-2009. Don then took over the reins from 2009-2014. After Steve’s passing in January 2020, the Urmston Meadowside Eagles team decided to reunite to play in their honour, with the addition of a few new faces!
In addition to the expected attendance, we would love to get as many people down as possible on Sunday 31st July to celebrate the lives of two great men and raise as much money as possible for a very worthwhile cause. Please feel free to share the event amongst as many family and friends and we look forward to seeing you there!

A huge thank you to you for kindly agreeing to let us use the venue for the day. I can’t thank you enough for such a meaningful gesture to a team with roots to the local area. Hopefully we can repay you with a fantastic attendance and a great game of football.

And lastly, but most importantly....

Without the commitment and dedication you lads have all shown over the last 2 years, none of this would even be possible. As manager, I'm beyond proud of you all. You’re a huge credit to both Steve and Don!
