FC's women issue quiz night challenge to other squads

FC United’s women’s team are attending en masse the FC Quiz Night hosted by Trafford Branch on Friday 10 April and they are feeling competitive.

They have issued a challenge to the club’s other squads to attend the quiz so that the club and fans alike can see the squads competing off the pitch in a way they cannot on the field.

As proud holders of the ’Wooden Spoon’, issued at the last FC Quiz hosted by the Eccles Branch, the women’s team are challenging the first team and reserves directly, as they feel it is only right that such an award is available to all our squads!

Since winning the Wooden Spoon, FC’s women have worked hard to improve their quiz-readiness, and can now count a PhD scientist and a maths teacher amongst their formidable intellectual army. Captain Kirsty Chambers said: "Come on then boys. The spoon is up for grabs."

Board member responsible for women’s football and women’s team matchday secretary Kate Ramsey said "Of course, if the boys aren’t man enough to take on the women, there is a good chance they will retain the culinary-ware."

Teams at the quiz are limited to a maximum of four people and, as well as branches, everyone is welcome to take part or just attend. Tickets are just £5 per person with supper included.
