Law firm finished top of the league
It’s been a mixed start to the season for premiership teams
Liverpool and Everton – but a team from Weightmans LLP helped
retain...
...the city’s footballing honour after
being crowned champions of the ‘Pinstripe League’.
In a 10 week football tournament, Weightmans’ eight man squad
beat 16 other teams from the region’s law firms to take the
Division 1 title for the very first time.
After swapping his briefcase for football boots, costs draftsman
and football Captain Mark Moriaty lead his colleagues and squad
buddies Gareth Noonan, Chris Kennedy, David Miers, David Woerner,
Nick Lowe and Liam and Tom Murphy to victory.
When the final results came through, Mark said: “We are all
thrilled to walk away as champions.
“Competition from the other teams was fierce and we only
narrowly clinched victory in several games.”
Mark praised his team’s competitive spirit after second-half
goals turned potential defeats into deserved victories.
“Although a few of us are currently nursing a range of minor
injuries, we can’t wait to kick off the new season and hopefully
defend our title!”
