TNT Sports Reveals Grenfell Athletic Football Club Documentary

TNT Sports has revealed a Grenfell Athletic Football Club documentary, Beacon of Hope: The Grenfell Athletic Story, as part of a new partnership.

TNT Sports and parent Warner Bros. Discovery will provide career mentorship and opportunities to the Grenfell Athletic teams, a community football team established following the tragedy of the Grenfell Tower Fire on June 14, 2017.

To drive awareness around the impact of the grassroots community football teams, Beacon of Hope: The Grenfell Athletic Story tells the full story of the club charting its journey and the impact the teams have had on the community and individuals within it. Following the story of the people behind the club, the men’s football team, and showcasing the women’s football team in full for the first time, the documentary will air on TNT Sports at the end of 2025.

“Our partnership with TNT Sports marks a key milestone in the club’s journey, said Rupert Taylor, founder of Grenfell Athletic. “Having the opportunity to tell the full story of how Grenfell Athletic Football Club came to be, the impact it has had on the community and our ambitions for the future is an exciting moment for all involved. Working with TNT Sports means we can not only further showcase the club but offer a range of career opportunities for our players. As our teams continue to grow, we look forward to achieving our goal of becoming everyone’s second favorite football team.”

“As a sport broadcaster based in West London, committed to telling the stories around sport, we were inspired by the story of Grenfell Athletic Football Club,” said Scott Young, executive VP of WBD Sports Europe. “GAFC is a powerful example of how sport can bring people together through the most difficult of times. We’re incredibly proud to be supporting their men’s and women’s football teams and to bring this story to our audiences.”
