WARRINGTON police have taken to the spirit of the World Cup by training for a world football tournament to be held in October.

The World Police Indoor Soccer Tournament will see more than 100 teams of police officers from all over the world competing for the title.

Ten police officers from Warrington and Halton will make up the NBC United team and will travel to The Netherlands for the five-day competition between October 9 and 13.

Anyone interested in sponsoring NBC United should contact PC Burrows on 01244 613864.
