Meet the CAIS lions - Football Team



CAIS Lions are preparing to play their first football match this October.
 
 
The team will play North Wales Dragons at Colwyn Bay Football Club on Sunday, October 20 with a kick-off scheduled for 2pm.
 
The Lions are also holding a charity auction at the Llanelian Road club after the game. The auction will include Premiership tickets and other luxury surprises up for grabs.
 
All the funds raised will be donated to Change Step, the armed forces veterans’ project. North Wales Dragons, a charity team, will be collecting for their own cause on the day.
 
 CAIS fundraising officer Richard Evans was excited about the match,  “I can’t wait. We’ve already got our kit thanks to a sponsorship deal with Cartrefi Conwy. The shirts look fantastic,” he said.
 
“The team will play several games over the course of the year and I’m hoping to put on a really special game in the future. But already we’ve got local opposition lined up. Training starts this month. It’s a charity match but that doesn’t mean it’s not competitive, so I want to put up a good show.”
 
 Anyone interested in playing can contact Richard on 01492 863005, or email richard.evans@cais.co.uk
 
 CAIS Lions VS North Wales Dragons, kick-off 2pm, Sunday, October 20 at Colwyn Bay Football Club. The charity auction will start at around 4pm after the game in the clubhouse.
 
 Entrance is free but spectators can make a donation.
