🐷⚽ Super 16 Revealed for Ripon’s Pig Cup! ⚽🐷
We can finally reveal the 16 teams taking part in this summer’s Pig Cup Six A Side Tournament — a brand new community footie fest raising money and awareness for Andy’s Man Club and Ripon Men’s Shed 💙🛠️
📅 Sunday 12 July
🕙 10am–2.30pm
📍 Ripon City AFC, Mallorie Park Drive
Created by Portly Pig regular Helen Cotterill Smith along with Stuart and Katie Ross, the tournament has already captured the imagination of businesses and groups across the district.
Helen has also pulled some serious strings through her EFL connections — the Carabao Cup, League 2 Play Off Cup, and Vertu EFL Trophy will all be on display on the day 🏆🏆🏆
