On Sunday 12th September, the 18th Royalist cup/Haiti earthquake benefit game was played down at the pitch, at Bedgrove. The game was arranged to raise much needed funds for the emergency work being carried out on the Caribbean island since the most recent earthquake. The council and referee kindly waived their usual fees made and exactly £350 was raised and donated to the Haiti Red Cross appeal. A really great effort by everyone who played and kindly donated. Sadly this was the third time we have had a benefit game for this beautiful but impoverished and beleaguered country as a faultline running through it, along with terrible hurricanes, poverty and political turmoil makes it at constant risk to tragedy and needing our help and assistance.
