Ikkayees: Where Food Meets Sports in Liverpool
At Ikkayees Restaurant Liverpool, we believe that great food brings people together — and so does sport. That’s why we’ve stepped beyond our kitchen to actively support Liverpool community sports events, from football to boxing.
Our mission is to inspire youth participation, celebrate local talent, and strengthen bonds within Liverpool’s diverse community. Through football tournaments, athlete meet-and-greets, and sponsorship programs, we proudly represent what happens when food, culture, and sport work hand in hand.
Creating the Ikkayees Football Team
Our sporting journey began by forming the Ikkayees Football Team — a group of passionate players representing our restaurant on the field. To make it official, we designed our very own Ikkayees jersey, a symbol of teamwork and dedication that unites both players and fans.
This initiative gave local football lovers a chance to showcase their skills, build confidence, and connect with a community that supports them. By creating a team, we wanted to show Liverpool that Ikkayees is more than a restaurant — it’s a movement.
Proud Sponsor of Local Football Tournament
On 21 September 2025, Ikkayees proudly sponsored the Britain KMCC Liverpool Region 7’s Soccer Tournament, held at Tiber Football Center.
The tournament was a thrilling event, bringing together talented players, passionate fans, and local organizations. Supporting this football tournament allowed us to do more than just watch the game — it allowed us to build community spirit and give back to Liverpool.
Our sponsorship helped provide opportunities for youth players, promote healthy competition, and encourage more people to take part in sports.
Welcoming the Indian Boxing Team to Liverpool
Ikkayees was also honoured to host the Indian National Boxing Team during their visit to Liverpool. The celebration at our restaurant was a proud moment for our staff and guests.
Meeting these world-class athletes was more than just an event — it was a chance to inspire Liverpool’s young athletes. The dedication and discipline of the boxing team reminded everyone that sports are not just games, but life lessons in perseverance and teamwork.
Why Sports Matter to Ikkayees
Sports create connections, encourage healthy lifestyles, and bring joy to entire communities. At Ikkayees, we believe that supporting Liverpool sports events is just as important as serving delicious food.
Through our sponsorships and community programs, we aim to:
- Encourage young players to stay active
- Build relationships across Liverpool’s diverse community
- Celebrate athletes who inspire others
