Our club, our why
About
Ollie's story
Ollie was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer, when he was just two years old. Ollie United was created to help fund specialist treatment that was unavailable through the NHS.
Following Ollie's passing in 2021, the club became a permanent fundraising and awareness platform so that other families facing childhood cancer have more hope and more options.
The club
Ollie United F.C. Northern Ireland is a grassroots amateur football club playing in memory of Ollie Sweeney. We are the Northern Ireland side of the Ollie United family, which was founded in Luton in June 2019.
Every match we play, every shirt we wear and every pound we raise carries Ollie's name, and his high-five lives on in our crest.
Where your money goes
We raise money for Solving Kids' Cancer UK, which funds research and treatment for children with neuroblastoma, and Keech Hospice Care, which supported Ollie and his family.
Every donation, however small, makes a real difference.
