Friday night rugby in aid of Myton Hospice
Broadstreet Rugby Club, Coventry Fund Raiser For Myton Hospice
On Friday 29th January, Broadstreet RFC will host arch local rivals Rugby Lions, in a crunch National League Two North fixture which kicks off at 7.30pm at Ivor Preece Fields in Binley Woods, Coventry. With little to separate both clubs in the league, the game is poised to be a fiercely competitive encounter, with Rugby Lions undoubtedly seeking revenge for the 12-0 defeat at the hands of Broadstreet back in October.
As a fitting tribute to former Coventry and Broadstreet Rugby Football Club hooker Andy Farrington, who recently died aged 52 after a courageous battle against cancer, Broadstreet have decided to take this opportunity to raise some much-needed funds for Myton Hospice, who cared so brilliantly for “Faz” in the latter stages of his life.
To cater for a crowd anticipated to be in excess of 750, there will be hot food available, and an additional pitch side facility - “Fazza’s bar” – which will be serving canned beers, hot/cold drinks and mulled wine.
Before the game and in the half-time interval, entertainment will be provided by The Crew Girls Dance Group, and if you needed any extra incentive to come down there’ll also be a raffle with a number of great prizes!
The £7(adult)/£3.50(child) entry fee includes parking (subject to availability), your match day programme, and a donation to Myton Hamlet Hospice.
Combined with a percentage of the profits from the bar, we are aiming to raise a total of more than £1500.
As an added incentive to get there nice and early, we are also running a £2 a pint drinks promo from 5pm-7pm. So why not come and support your local teams and help us to raise money for a great cause!
