Two signed captain's armbands from Cesc Fabregas will be auctioned online from November 12 for charity. This unique piece of sporting memorabilia will raise money for two worthy causes - the Willow Foundation and the Steve Bernard Foundation.
Unlike other sporting memorabilia, captains' armbands cannot be bought in the shops. They are unique items that have been signed by your sporting heroes, including Cesc Fabregas, and many have been worn, even showing the 'battle scars' of the day.
An armband from each of the 21 Premier League club captains are up for grabs, along with a selection of armbands from Championship captains. Each signed armband is framed alongside a striking picture of the captain in action.
The online eBay auction will run for 10 days, starting on Thursday November 12, ending Sunday November 22, with proceeds to be split equally between the Willow Foundation and Steve Bernard Foundation. You can view all armbands now at www.willowfoundation.org.uk/captainsarmbands
The Willow Foundation was set up by Arsenal legend, Bob Wilson and his wife, Megs and provides special days for seriously ill 16 to 40 year olds throughout the UK. The Steve Bernard Foundation supports sporting projects in the Bournemouth area, in memory of sports-mad Steve who sadly passed away in November 2005.
Willow Foundation co-founder Bob Wilson, said: "These armbands are a real one-off and I'm sure that any football fan would be thrilled to own one. Buying just one armband in this auction will not only be a fantastic purchase of unique sporting memorabilia but will also mean a great deal to the people who will benefit from a special day during a really tough time of their life.
