Commercial’s Jake Wood to take on Football to Amsterdam Cycle Challenge

The two-day cycle starts on June 9.

Exeter City’s Commercial coordinator Jake Wood is joining the fight against prostate cancer by taking part in this year’s Football to Amsterdam cycling challenge for Prostate Cancer UK.



Jake is taking part in the two-day, Football to Amsterdam ride in London on June 9, with his dad who is former Exeter Chiefs Head of Corporate John Wood.

The pair are hoping to raise over £2,000 for the charity that supports and researches people who have developed the growing type of cancer. 



Football to Amsterdam is the biggest ride in football, taking place on 9-11 June 2017. Backed by the English Football League and the League Managers Association, this year 400 football fans, staff and legends of the game will be embarking on the epic pedal-pilgrimage of 145 miles cycling over two days, all raising money to stop prostate cancer.



Featuring in the starting line-up are Les Ferdinand, Terry Butcher, Viv Anderson, Alan Smith, Sean Davis and Simon Grayson.
