BIG MATCH FOR WORTHY CAUSE

By Mark Cawkwell, Head of Brigg Town Juniors (on the big match at The Hawthorns, Saturday, November 28, 6.30pm KO)

The match with Brigg Amateurs is against a Brigg Town Junior Managers/Brigg Town Juniors Old Boys' XI. We have played a couple of games as Brigg Town Junior Managers for charity in the last year. The last was against an App-Frod Junior Managers' XI at Brumby Hall, Scunthorpe; all proceeds went to Cpl Lombardi's trust fund (the Scunthorpe soldier who was tragically killed in Afghanistan).
The match at Brigg Town on November 28 will be in aid of the Help the Heroes charity. All the players are paying at least a fiver to play, and we are hoping to do a small programme with all the players' names on, and also a half-time raffle etc.
Players for Brigg Town include me, Jimmy Huxford, Carl Atkinson, Neil Scott, John Glentworth, Joe Newell, Martin Wilson, Paul Dunderdale, Paddy Ellis, John Taylor, Daz Jordan, Kevin Martin, Paul East and Dave Servat. There are more to be confirmed. All of these players either manage or used to play for the juniors at Brigg Town. We also have Steve Housham playing.
It should be a great night.
