Longest Continuous game of 5-aside football (31 hours)

 

 

 

At the age of 18 I was part of a 16 man squad that broke the longest ever continuos game of 5-aside football that lasted a total of 31 hours. 

 

I played on the Everton Fc team that was managed by Everton Fc's Leighton Baines against a Liverpool FC team managed by Liverpool Fc's Jamie Carragher.

The trials lasted a total of 4 weeks and tested in detail a players: physical fitness, footballing ability and mental toughness - after being successful in the 4 week trials i was on a provisional 20 man squad that was to undergo an intense 8 week boot camp before the final 16 man squad was chosen a week before the event itself.

 

Attached are some videos that show my journey in completing this Guiness world record attempt. 

I was also top goal scorer for the Everton FC team scoring a total of 178 goals
