Up the townnnnn

Matt Oaten opens up about the pride of pulling on the GB shirt for #DeaflympicsGB - and the quiet struggle behind the scenes. Representing Great Britain in men’s deaf football is an honour few experience, but for Matt and the team, the road to the Deaflympics in Japan isn’t paved with sponsorships and support. It’s late nights, personal sacrifices, and relentless fundraising just to make the dream real. Every goal scored, every tackle made, is for a cause greater than sport. It’s about representation. It’s about proving that deaf athletes deserve the same stage and support as anyone else. Let’s make some noise for our GB players. They’ve earned it - on and off the pitch. ⚽️🇬🇧 Donate now - bit.ly/4lW1edB Sponsorship enquiries - gbdfsponsorship@gmail.com #MadeforDeaflympicsGB #DeafAthletesMatter #GBMenFootball #Deaflympics #MattOaten #DeafSport #SupportDeafAthletes #FundDeaflympicsGB
