SIXTH form students from Tadcaster Grammar School have completed a five-hour football marathon, raising more than £700 for charity.
The students were aiming to get more people talking about prostate cancer by taking part in the epic game.
It is the second year that students Charlie Gregory and James Fowler have organised the fundraising charity event, which took place during the half- term break.
They were inspired to organise the marathon for Prostate Cancer UK as they felt that it is a cancer not many men are willing to acknowledge, believing it to be an awkward subject.
Mark Bishop, director of fundraising at Prostate Cancer UK, said: “We would like to thank Tadcaster Grammar School students for raising funds for Prostate Cancer UK.”
