Noble granted Testimonial
West Ham United are delighted to announce that Mark Noble has been awarded a Testimonial match by the Board.
The long-serving Club captain will be honoured with a match between the current West Ham United first team and a West Ham United All-Stars squad, with all funds raised being donated to charity.
The fixture, which will take place at the Boleyn Ground on Easter Monday 28 March 2016 at 2pm, will give Hammers of all ages a final opportunity to see many of their heroes in action at the Club’s historic home.
Noble, who joined West Ham as a 13-year-old schoolboy and is now approaching 350 first-team appearances in Claret and Blue, cannot wait for a special occasion, which will form part of his overall activities for his testimonial year.
“I am hugely honoured and grateful that the Board have awarded me a Testimonial match at the Boleyn Ground,” said the popular No16, who was born and raised in nearby Canning Town. “This is where I come from and this is my Football Club, so I can think of nothing better than having my Testimonial at the stadium where I have laughed, cheered and cried, both as a fan and as a player.
“Everyone knows how much West Ham United means to me, so to have the opportunity to share a pitch with the players who I have grown up with will be fantastic – and it will be even more special to have my family, friends and so many Hammers fans watching from the stands.
“I am pleased and proud to say we will be donating all the proceeds from my Testimonial match to three charities that mean a huge amount to me – Richard House Children’s Hospice, Help for Heroes and the DT38 Foundation.”

Mark Noble
In granting Noble a Testimonial match, Joint-Chairmen David Sullivan and David Gold paid tribute to a player and a man they have huge respect and affection for.
“Mark is the modern-day ‘Mr West Ham’, so it was natural that he would be granted a Testimonial at the end of what will be his 12th season as a member of the first-team squad,” said the Joint-Chairmen.
“Mark has been a tremendous servant to West Ham United both on the field and off it and this Testimonial match is recognition of the long and dignified career he has enjoyed in a Claret and Blue shirt.
“It is a mark of the man that he will donate all the proceeds from this match to three charities that mean so much to him and to everyone at the Club.
“The match has been scheduled for the afternoon of Easter Monday, meaning fans of all ages can come along to the Boleyn Ground and see some of their heroes in action one last time. We are sure Mark and his Testimonial Committee will ensure it is a truly memorable event.”
Further details will be released as the date for the Mark Noble Testimonial Match approaches, including ticketing and corporate hospitality arrangements, on whufc.com and across the Club’s social media channels.
