BRIGG TOWN HOSTS THE ADRIAN GIBBONS MEMORIAL FOOTBALL MATCH

 

The Adrian Gibbons Memorial Football Match 2019 was played in Brigg yesterday afternoon (Sunday, May 5).
The venue was the Hawthorns ground, courtesy of Brigg Town Football Club, with players  from Briggensians FC and Brigg Town, plus a number of golden oldies.
Spectators and players gave generously in memory of Adrian - a very popular teacher and local sportsman who died in 2014. Proceeds will go to the British Heart Foundation.
Our pictures from yesterday's game show the players with Adrian's family prior to kick-off and during the minute's applause from people on and off the pitch.

Among the goalscorers in a high-scoring match was Colin Mumby at the tender age of 69!
