Join Team TBSF in running, jogging or even walking the Great North Run and have your fundraising efforts matched pound for pound by Tony Blair!
Friday, Mar 18, 2011 in Sports Foundation
We are delighted that for the 4thyear Team TBSF will be taking part in the greatest half marathon event, the Great North Run, and raising funds for the Tony Blair Sports Foundation.
Team TBSF includes good runners and not so good runners and every pound they raise goes directly to recruiting and training more grassroots sports coaches and officials.
This year Tony Blair will personally match every pound raised by Team TBSF. For every £300 raised the charity can train another sports coach who will then volunteer with a sports club or community group so that more children and young people get access to playing sport.
Starting in Newcastle the run takes place on Sunday 18thSeptember and with 52,000 people taking part – make sure you’re one of them by signing up quick!
For a £50.00 initial donation you can secure a place in Team TBSF and all we ask is that you try to raise at least £300.
Some of our top fundraisers will get the chance to win a very special VIP pass which includes starting the race alongside elite and celebrity runners and access to the VIP Village at the end of the race – just imagine getting the chance to rub shoulders with the stars.
