An Evening with Sir Geoff Hurst MBE takes place at Bracknell Leisure Centre on Saturday 26th October from 6pm to 11pm.
A man who really needs little introduction, Geoff is the last living player of the 1966 England World Cup Winning Team and the first player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup Final as England recorded a 4-2 victory over West Germany at Wembley. Hurst began his career with West Ham United, where he scored 242 goals in 500 first team appearances. There he won the FA Cup in 1964 and the European Winners Cup in 1965. He was sold to Stoke City in 1972 where he played 3 seasons and won the Watney Cup in 1973. He finished his football league career with West Bromwich Albion in 1976. Hurst went to play football in Ireland for Cork Celtic, the United States for the Seattle Sounders, before returning to England to manage non-league Telford United. He also coached the England set-up before a two year stint as Chelsea manager from 1979 to 1981. He later coached Kuwait SC, before leaving the game to focus on other interests.
You will get the opportunity to hear him talk openly and candidly about his incredible career before an interactive Q&A.
