The Garioch Cup is back!

19 October 2017

After the success of the Garioch Cup last year, we are delighted to announce that the tournament will run again this year!

The Over 35’s football tournament is run in partnership with the Inverurie Loco Works F.C., Scottish FA, GPH Builders Merchants and Aberdeen FC Community Trust.

Stephen Boddie AFCCT Community Coach in Inverurie said, ‘It is great to have the Garioch Cup running again this year, it is important to get more people over the age of 35 years old more active again and this is made even more enjoyable through football.

“The tournament was a great success last year and following on from this an Aberdeen City version was created so in total we had more than 180 over 35's players competing across Aberdeen City and Shire.

“Finally, I would just like to say a massive thank you to our partners especially GPH Builders Merchants for their sponsorship of the Garioch Cup prize, without all their support events like this would not be possible.”
