The challenge will take place across the weekend of June 6-8 with Alty fans and former players encouraged to join the Saturday afternoon walking leg between Trafford FC and Altrincham FC – a distance of just under eight miles.
The cause and fundraising efforts are close to our hearts at Alty having lost former players Mark Maddox and George Melling to MND.
We are delighted to announce former Alty player Gary Scott will be a core member of the team along with three members of the Maddox family; Sonny and Vinny Maddox and Connor Smith.
Ossett United manager and ex-Alty player James Walshaw is also a core member of the team and also walking the Alty leg will be former England women’s captain Steph Houghton and former Premier League striker Marcus Stewart, who was diagnosed with MND in 2022.
