Charity Begins At ... Alfreton

Monday 21st February 2011

The first charity to benefit from the Alfreton Sunday League's Grand 40th Reunion has been announced.

The annual Stan Brewster Memorial Football Tournament, which itself raises funds for four local charities each year in memory of former Swanwick man Stan Brewster, will be one of three organisations which will receive monies from a specific fund raiser being held on the day of the reunion.

Gary Spencer, chairman and organiser of the Stan Brewster tournament said: "We are very pleased to be involved with the Alfreton Sunday League reunion and it will give this year's Stan Brewster event a very welcome starting point.

"Sandra Brewster and her family are delighted our tournament has been chosen to be one of the nominated charities and we will be looking to give what support we can to the venture."

The reunion has been set up by former Johnson Sports, Jaeger and Archway '84 goalkeeper Andy Smithurst who is inviting anyone and everyone who has ever played for, or been an official, with any club within the Alfreton sunday League since it's formation in 1969.

Current and former referees and league officials are also most welcome to attend the family fun-orientated day.

The event is being held at Lumb Farm on the outskirts of Ripley on Sunday, June 12th from 2pm until 10:30pm and will include a hog roast, barbecue, bouncy castle, other children's rides, licensed bar and much more.

Full details of the reunion are available from the official website: www.tsargroup.co.uk/page5.htm

The site also includes a forum and guest book for former players and officials to leave messages and catch up with each other before the big day.

The remaining two charities to benefit from the reunion's prize draw will be announced as soon as they have been confirmed.

All enquiries about the event can be directed to organiser Andy Smithurst on 07875 468 504 or by emailing him at: reunion@tsargroup.co.uk
