We’re looking for teams for a charity five-a-side tournament in conjunction with the Beatson Cancer Charity.
Come play in the shadow of Fir Park on the astro and raise funds for charity on Sunday, 16 February 2020.
We’re looking for teams of seven to take part, with guaranteed matches in round-robin group stage, a trophy for the winning team, goodie bags and prizes.
Entry is £150 per team. To sign up, just head to our booking page.
“On behalf of everyone at Beatson Cancer Charity we are honoured to be working alongside the Motherwell FC Community Trust,” Charlene Clay, from the Beatson charity, said.
“Thanks to the support, we can continue to invest in services, staff, research and education to provide a better future for those affected by cancer.
“We aim to make the journey easier by transforming the way patients and cared for and the way treatment is funded. Whether it is in the hospital ward, or within the community, we believe no one in Scotland should experience cancer without care, without love and without hope.
“We are with patients and their families whenever they need us. All our work is made possible by supporters like yourselves and it is due to your generosity which allows Beatson Cancer Charity and all our staff and volunteers to deliver an innovative and patient-focused approach to cancer care and change the lives of those affected by the disease every day.”
Dawn Middleton, general manager of the Motherwell FC Community Trust, added: “We are proud to partner with the Beatson Cancer Charity to raise funds through the five-a-side tournament.
“They do incredible work in the care and treatment of cancer patients. Sadly, many of us will know someone or experienced the harrowing nature of this illness. But many of us will also know of the support received from Beatson and it is important we raise funds to help them continue to provide such incredible care.”

We’re backing the Rainbow Laces campaign.
Rainbow Laces is Stonewall Scotland’s awareness project to make sure that LGBT people are welcomed and accepted at all levels of the game.
Today, four in 10 LGBT people think sport isn’t welcoming to them. Many report experiencing discrimination – and we need to change that.
Football is a sport for all. It should not judge or discriminate people for who they are.
Motherwell Football Club is a safe, inclusive place for all. We all need to work to ensure everyone feels that is the case.
As well as our continued backing, our players will show their support on the pitch at the weekend’s match with St Johnstone.
“Our club is one that makes everybody feel part of the same family,” said Motherwell captain Peter Hartley.
“We must never take that for granted. As players, staff and fans, we must be proactive in making everyone feel safe and welcome.
“It’s our responsibility to do that for all, every day of the year. We’re proud to back this campaign to fight for an end to the stigma and discrimination in our sport.”
We can only stop homophobic, biphobic and transphobic behaviour and language from happening in football by showing that it is not acceptable, at every level of the game.
We are dedicated to eradicating any forms of homophobic, biphobic or transphobic behaviour and making sure our club is a place where LGBT fans can be safe and accepted.

Captain. Hero. Legend. Phil O’Donnell is the supporters’ choice to join the Motherwell FC Hall of Fame.
Raised near Fir Park and brought through as a youngster, his early career with the club was prolific.
A Scottish Cup final goal scorer and winner at just 19 years of age, his career would continue to blossom.
He became the club’s youngest ever in European competition. Twice winner of the PFA Young Player of the Year award and international honours.
After 145 games in claret and amber, he would move to Celtic in 1994 for what remains Motherwell’s record transfer fee.
Almost 10 years would pass at Celtic and Sheffield Wednesday, some of which were frustrated through injury at both clubs as he played 146 more matches.
The call of home would eventually come.
Returning to Fir Park in January 2004, he became “Uncle Phil”. A mentor to many young stars and with his nephew David Clarkson under his wing.
He would make another 89 appearances in claret and amber, and another cup final appearance, before his untimely passing aged 35 in December 2007.
Brave as a Lion. Phil O’Donnell takes his place in the Motherwell FC Hall of Fame alongside George Stevenson, Willie Pettigrew, Ally Maxwell and James McFadden.
Looking for a venue to hold your Hogmanay party this year?
We’ve got availability for you to see in the bells here at Fir Park, with space for you to have your own bash for up to 120 people.
With welcome fizz or a shot wall and a fully-licensed bar until 2am, you can have your own private party at Fir Park.
Kids are also welcome. For more information or to book, email hospitality@motherwellfc.co.uk or call 01698 333333.
The fourth inductee into the Motherwell FC Hall of Fame class of 2019 is James McFadden.
McFadden was a product of what is now the club’s youth academy and – after impressing for the reserves – made his top-team debut on Boxing Day in 2000 in a 3-0 reverse at home to Dundee.
Few in the swollen 6,000-plus crowd that afternoon would have envisaged what an indelible and important mark the young Glaswegian would not only have on Motherwell, but Scottish football over the next two decades.
By the time the club had crashed into administration in May 2002, Faddy was a mainstay and indeed, scored a memorable goal away to Kilmarnock in a 4-1 win when a packed Chadwick Stand, full of worried ‘Well fans, cheered on their new talisman.
It was around that time McFadden was selected by the then-national team boss Berti Vogts for a tour of the Far East. Aged just 19, McFadden earned his first cap against South Africa and even managed to miss his flight home after a night out. It only added to the intrigue as the nation began to fall in love with this talented “cheeky boy”.
With ‘Well being run by administrator Bryan Jackson and the club clinging for survival, McFadden was a light through those dark days.
He netted 19 times in 35 matches for the Steelmen during the 2002/03 season, collecting 15 cautions and a red card to boot, but couldn’t stop a Terry Butcher-led Motherwell finishing bottom of the SPL table, despite memorable wins over Rangers, Celtic and Hearts.
However, Falkirk’s lack of a stadium at the time saved ‘Well from the oblivion of relegation.
McFadden finished that season in style, netting a cracking hat-trick against Livingston on the final day, including an audacious “Panenka” penalty, firmly establishing himself as the hottest property in Scottish football.
‘Well fans were counting down the days to the end of the summer window of 2003 in the hope their hero would still wear the claret and amber that campaign. But on the last day, 1 September, the inevitable happened and he joined English Premier League side Everton for a deal that would eventually land ‘Well close to £2m.
It’s never been told publicly, but McFadden gave up his share of that fee to ensure Motherwell, or more so the creditors the club had at the time, could be better recompensed. His transfer was the main reason the club could emerge from the stranglehold of the court-appointed accountants less than eight months later.
McFadden went on to become an important player in the David Moyes story at Everton, and more so, established himself as a national hero as the focal point of the national team for numerous campaigns.
His 48 caps brought many fond and special memories, none more so than the incredible goal in Paris as Alex McLeish’s Scotland stunned former world champions France.
Multi-million pound moves to Birmingham, then back to Everton, before a short spell at Sunderland were next, before an emotional return home to Motherwell in February 2013, making his mark on his first appearance as ‘Well saw off Celtic 2-1 at Fir Park.
He then rolled back the years with his first goal of his second coming with a cracker against Hibs in a 4-1 win in front of the ESPN cameras at Fir Park.
Motherwell would finish second behind Celtic that season, with Faddy contributing five goals in 11 starts, and second again the following season, when they pipped Aberdeen on the last day of the campaign at Pittodrie.
A brief year at St Johnstone was next before a third spell at ‘Well, when Mark McGhee signed him initially as a player, before making him his assistant for the 2016/2017 season.
An unforgettable player, a coach, an assistant manager, a Scotland hero and a man who provided inspiration and hope to a group of supporters in their darkest of days. James McFadden will always be known as one of Motherwell’s most important figures.
He will be inducted at a dinner at the Bothwell Bridge Hotel on Saturday, 23 November, along with George Stevenson, Willie Pettigrew, Ally Maxwell. Hosted by Tam Cowan, our event is now sold out.

Motherwell Football Club is delighted to announce a partnership with Scottish craft gin producer The Dundee Gin Company.
The Dundee Gin Company is a three-year-old, Dundee-based gin and gin liqueur specialist that carry a variety of flavours, as well as full-strength gins.
“Having expanded recently with a much higher profile on the west coast, we were seeking a partnership in Scotland with a company that shares our community-based ethos,” Lewis Murphy of The Dundee Gin Company said.
“None could embrace this more than Motherwell FC, as the only fan-owned club in the Scottish Premiership.
“All the staff and supporters we have met so far have been a testament to the club, welcoming us with open arms.
“After our initial meeting with the club, it was obvious that this was a great partner for us and that a long-term relationship would be a benefit to both Motherwell FC and ourselves.
“We have already been converted into fans of the Steelmen and we are very excited to see what the future can bring as the official gin sponsor of Motherwell Football Club.”
Suzanne Reid, head of commercial and marketing at Motherwell FC, added: “We’re delighted to be expanding our partnership portfolio by working with The Dundee Gin Company.
“As part of the sponsorship, a new Motherwell FC gin liqueur will be launched in time for Christmas. We thank the company for their support and look forward to working with them.”
