Llandudno Valkyries were on a massive high after winning a ladies recreational football charity tournament in Wrexham at the weekend.
The coast team travelled to Penycae FC to take part in a competition organised by the North Wales Police ladies football team to raise funds for the Rupert’s Rainbow appeal.
A fund has been set up in tribute to 11-month old Rupert Smith, who is being cared for at Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool.
Rupert has a 1 in 1 million life threatening condition called Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood (AHC) for which there is currently no cure.
His parents have begun raising £1.5m for hope, research and a cure. Rupert is the son of medal-winning North Wales Police officer Sgt Dave Smith and his wife Siobhan.
The weekend women’s football event was the latest in a series of fund raisers held to aid the cause.
The Valkyries battled through six matches to reach the final, where they beat Mynydd Isa on penalties.
Valkyries formed this season and compete in the North Wales Recreational Women’s League. \They have improved vastly as the season has progressed.
