Luis Gabriel Guembes Quimper Charity Football Match - Farnborough FC: Tuesday 14th April

• Events Home

A charity football match is being held on Tuesday 14th April 2026 at Farnborough Football Club in remembrance of Luis Gabriel Guembes Quimper, a 15-year-old boy who tragically died in Guildford earlier this year. Luis was a bright, funny young man who loved football above almost everything else. He played for Mytchett Athletic Kestrels and, most recently, Churt Vipers. His loss has been devastating for his family, his teammates, and everyone who knew him.

The local football community will come together at Farnborough F.C. for a testimonial match in his honour — Churt U16 Vipers vs a specially reformed Mytchett Athletic U16 Kestrels side, brought back together by his former coaches for this one occasion. It is a story of a community refusing to let grief have the last word.

Funds raised from the match will go towards:

To place memorial benches in Luis' name at each of his clubs and his school
To raise awareness of the impact of knife crime on families and communities
To raise funds for registered charities working in knife crime prevention and youth education
To use sport as a tool to engage and protect at-risk young people

The match kicks off at 7pm and donations can be made on entry. Please show your support to the teams, families involved and the charities supporting this event.
