West Ham United are delighted to announce that SBOBET will be presenting the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK with a £10,000 cheque before Saturday's SBOBET Cup match against RC Deportivo La Coruna.

The club's principal partners have strongly supported the Fund ever since joining forces with West Ham back in December 2008 and this is just the latest significant financial gesture, following on from the club's own most recent £4,000 donation last month.

Back in December, SBOBET paid for every fan attending the Manchester United home game to have a scarf bearing the Fund's name - which helped in their drive to raise awareness of bowel Cancer among supporters - while also presenting another cheque for £5,000 at that fixture.

SBOBET also sponsor the whufc.com Player of the Month award and the WHUIFC supporters' team. In addition, they honoured Tony Carr with a special award in recognition of his outstanding work with the Academy back in May.

Both teams will be presented to special guests from SBOBET before the Deportivo match and the SBOBET Cup in aid of the Academy will be handed over to the winning captain immediately after the final whistle. Should the game finish level after 90 minutes, then a penalty shoot-out will be staged to decide the victors.
