Paris to London for Zain - Jack, Sam, Corey, Ryan

Hi everyone,

Myself, Sam Cook, Corey Hewett and Ryan Farmer are raising money by cycling from Paris, France to Great Ormond Street Hospital in London, UK for Zain. An incredible young man, that after beating cancer once, has unfortunately been informed it has returned aggressively and Zain is bravely battling once again. 

Zain first came over to train with us at For The Players Academy in the Spring of 2021 and it was immediately evident how mature, resilient and determined he is. His passion for football and for pushing himself to be better, not just in the sport itself, but in all areas of his life is outstanding. Someone that always shows manners, compassion and enthusiasm, and is truly a pleasure to be around. We are all so grateful to be fortunate enough to know him and play a small role in his inspiring story.

We are cycling to show Zain how supported he his, and no matter what, to never give up. For such a brave boy, we want him to know how much he means to so many people and to keep being strong and fighting.

Any donations or support in anyway will be greatly appreciated and all proceeds will go to Great Ormond Street Hospital to the Play Specialists team, the amazing people that have been taking care of Zain.

Thank you!

Jack and the For The Players Academy Team
