FOOTBALL: Bassett to hold charity match
9:00am Friday 30th July 2010 in Sport By Dan Barnes
Wootton Bassett Town will be holding a charity match this Sunday.
Dave Turner's side will take on a team from 1st Battalion The Rifles, raising money for the regiment and Help the Heroes.
The friendly match will honour the town's close links with the repatriation of British servicemen and women and all donations made on the gate will be split equally between The Rifles and Help the Heroes.
"They approached us at the club and it's something that's very close to the hearts of the town," said Bassett boss Turner.
"I'm ex-forces so it's close to my heart too and it's nice that they want to do it for such a good cause."
The gate at Ryland's Way will open at 11.15am with the match kicking-off at 12pm.
