A football team in Penarth could be in the running to get help from former England football manager and player Harry Redknapp.  

Harry Redknapp in partnership with Specsavers has kicked off their search in Penarth to find a team in need of serious help.  

Last season, Harry helped Swansea football team Cwm Albion make one of the biggest comebacks in grassroots history. 

The training and mentorship from one of the most famous faces in the world of sport aims to help this season's underdogs.  

You can apply or nominate a team to become Specsavers’ Best Worst Team here. 

Harry Redknapp said: "I'm over the moon to be teaming up with Specsavers again. If the terrific season with the lads at Cwm Albion is anything to go by, it’ll be a good laugh.  

"I was bowled over by the grit, determination and spirit of last season’s Best Worst Team, so I can’t wait to meet the team that’s got what it takes to be this season’s worst. I’ve got some fantastic surprises up my sleeve, so let’s see who’s up for it!” 

Lisa Hale, Head of Consumer PR, Social & Brand Activation for Specsavers, said: “Grassroots football is filled with human moments – whether it’s a questionable on-field decision or a missed open goal, so are very proud to be investing in this underfunded area of culture once again. 

“We couldn’t be more excited to be working with Harry again this season to find our next ‘Best Worst Team’, so I would encourage all local clubs across the country to apply for the chance to win the title, and all the fame and glory that comes with it.

"Once Specsavers’ Best Worst Team has been selected, the healthcare retailer will be following and documenting the club’s journey throughout the 2024/25 footballing season."
