⚽ Good luck to everyone at Billingham Juniors FC as they continue fundraising for what would be an incredible opportunity for their Under-13s.

The team has been invited to attend the Maryville University Elite Soccer Camp in Tennessee after former Billingham resident Jon Baker, who made the same journey himself many years ago, offered today's young players the chance to follow in his footsteps.

They're working hard to raise the money needed to make the trip happen. If you're able to support them - or know a local business that might be interested - you'll find the GoFundMe link in the comments below 👇

Best of luck to the players, coaches and everyone involved 👏
