Community World Cup Day – Saturday 11th July 2026

Unity Support Network is excited to invite residents, families, children and young people to our Community World Cup Day on Saturday 11th July 2026.

This will be a fun, welcoming and community-led day bringing people together through football, creativity, activities and positive community connection.

The event will take place at Charterhouse Road Community Centre and the local ballpark.

What’s Happening on the Day?

There will be a range of activities for children, young people, families and residents to enjoy, including:

• 3-a-side football tournament

• Badge making

• Face painting

• Temporary tattoos

• Colouring and decorating bunting and flags

• Creative arts and crafts

• Water balloon games

• Light refreshments

• Medals and awards for participants

The day is about more than football. It is about bringing the community together, giving children and young people something positive to take part in, and creating a fun and welcoming space for residents of all ages.

Football Tournament

The football tournament will be organised by Carlos from Unity Sports Collective and New Generation FC, who will be supporting the football activities and helping to make the day fun, active and well organised.

The tournament will include:

Under 14s
14+ age group, including adults

We are especially encouraging residents, children, young people and adults who would like to play to come forward and take part. The games will be friendly, community-focused and about having fun rather than being overly competitive.

Whether you want to play, cheer people on, bring your family, or simply enjoy the atmosphere, you are welcome.
