Brigg Town Football Club will continue the pre-season programme on Saturday (August 8).
The Reserves, who play in the Lincolnshire League, have an interesting local derby tomorrow against Barnetby United, of the Scunthorpe & District League, at the Hawthorns (3pm).
This match must be played 'behind closed doors' due to Coronavirus restrictions on spectating from stands at sporting events. However, the clubhouse will be open and (from the licensed bar) people enjoying a drink and/or a snack from Pips Kitchen can obtain a view of the pitch through the entry doors and the large windows on either side.
Having lost 4-1 at home to Newark in last Saturday's pre-season opener at the Hawthorns, the Zebras' first team will be in friendly action at Lincoln United on Saturday afternoon (August 8).
Brigg's senior side will be visiting Grimsby Borough for another warm-up game on Wednesday, August 12 (7.30pm).
Saturday, August 15 will be Club Day at the Hawthorns, pictured above, when everyone interested in supporting the Zebras, on and off the field, will be made welcome from noon onwards. Further details of the programme of events to follow later.
Brigg's next first team home pre-season friendly will be a derby against Bottesford Town on Saturday, August 22. The following Saturday (29th) Crowle will visit the Hawthorns.
Brigg Town Reserves will be away to Cleethorpes Town A on Saturday, August 22, visit 780 JLC on Saturday, August 29, and then entertain Harworth Colliery Reserves at the Hawthorns on Tuesday, September 1 (7.45pm).
Brigg Town Cricket Club will visit Broughton on Saturday afternoon (August 8) for their second qualifying group game in the Challenge Cup which is being played throughout the month. Hibaldstow are away to Messingham tomorrow. Games start at 1pm. Winners of the four groups will go through to semi-finals in early September. Matches are 40 overs per innings in a competition which has replaced the planned Lincolnshire League programme due to the very late start to the season caused by the anti-virus restrictions.
