Tingley volunteer treasurer Zoe Walmsley said: “We're a grassroots football club and a registered charity, ran entirely by volunteers so we're entirely self sufficient.
“Throwing competitions, like this one, help us function as a club, and help keep our grounds maintained.”
She added: “The competition's generated such a good response we are looking to do another over the coming months.”
