Dylan was just 17
A Sunday League football team has raised more than £3,000 in memory of West Bridgford youngster Dylan Rich, who died away after suffering a suspected cardiac arrest whilst playing football last year. Dylan, who was 17 at the time of his death, was playing in a match for West Bridgford Colts during an FA Youth Cup game when the tragic incident occurred last September.
Nine current and former players took to the hills of Wales, completing the gruelling 17-mile hike and 7,657ft ascent in just over 16 hours, with the help of two dedicated drivers. The club’s current fundraising total stands at £3,280, with the funds to be donated to Cardiac Risk in the Young , a charity that aims to prevent young sudden cardiac deaths through cardiac screening and research, as well as providing specialist support to affected families.
