About Us
Ollie United Football Club was formed in June 2019 to help then two year old, Ollie Sweeney in his fight against Stage Four Neuroblastoma, a rare form of childhood cancer. Ollie was diagnosed just one month before his second birthday.
On average, one hundred children in the UK are diagnosed with Neuroblastoma each year. Of the one hundred children, fifty are diagnosed with the high risk form of the disease. Even if children go into remission, there is still a high chance that they can relapse. If that happens, the chances of survival are sadly very low.
Our club was set up to raise money for Ollie's treatment which is currently not available on the NHS.
Sadly in 2021, Ollie passed away.
Our club keeps his memory alive, raising money for causes that helped him.
From Ollie's diagnosis, the aim of the club was simple. Play football with a smile on our faces against like minded football clubs in the hope of raising money for Ollie's treatment.
Since Ollie's passing, our goal is the same, but now we're raising money for children like Ollie who are currently fighting Neuroblastoma.
In 2023 we joined Sunday League for the very first time, playing every Sunday morning in Luton. Win draw or lose, our main focus is keeping Ollie's memory alive through our beloved football club.
Since 2019, we've had our charity side who play between the months of April and August.
