WHAT IS THE VIRTUAL MATCH?
 
The One of Our Own Cup is an initiative from the Supportersā€™ Trust, designed primarily to provide an engagement opportunity for some of our Junior Grecians and to help raise funds for Exeter City Community Trust and Exeter Community Initiatives.
 
The game itself will take place though ā€˜live updatesā€™ on Twitter - @ECFCST - on May 16 at 3pm, where you will be able to see how our team of Junior Grecians competition winners get on as they go head-to-head with some of our prized academy graduates in a fictional game based upon our top-secret match generator.

FUNDRAISING
 
Entry into the draw will help to raise funds for Exeter City Community Trust and Exeter Community Initiatives, both of which do vital work in our local community.
 
In the past year, these organisations have been a part of the Cityā€™s community covid response, and whilst there are better times ahead for many of us, there are still those within the City and Greater Exeter area who will benefit hugely from the direct support that your donation/ticket price will help these charities to provide.
 
SPONSORSHIP
 
You can also help to raise funds for CCT and ECI by sponsoring the game. So far, we have raised Ā£1,100 thanks to the generous support shown through sponsorship from Crealy Theme Park & Resort, Carpetright, Pellew Carpets & Flooring, Stuart Gray Maintenance, The Light Brown Partnership, the London Exiles, the North Devon Grecians, the Exeter City Supporters Club, ECWFC.FANS, Wilf Walsh, and Alistair Yates.
