Broadcast Fives 2025: A day to remember
The Broadcast Fives returned for its third year, bringing together teams from across the UK’s film, TV, and cinema industry for a day of friendly competition, community spirit, and fundraising.
A fantastic turnout
Over 200 participants and supporters gathered at Shepherd’s Bush Powerleague to take part and cheer on their teams in both our five-a-side football and netball tournaments. With high energy, great sportsmanship, a little bit of rain and plenty of cheering from the sidelines, the event was a true celebration of the people who power our amazing industry.
Raising funds, raising spirits
Thanks to all the teams who took part, we managed to raise an incredible £22,000 to support the Film and TV Charity’s work. These funds will help us continue providing mental health support, financial guidance, and wellbeing services to those working behind the scenes.
The day kicked off with some light drizzle, a warm welcome from our CEO Marcus Ryder and a flying start to the tournament after a year of anticipation following last year’s event. After a packed schedule of group stages, knockout rounds, and finals, the day wrapped up with a trophy presentation and a few well-earned celebratory drinks.
