- 0:07Speaker 1: memory of local man Alex Miles and is organized by
- 0:10Speaker 1: his widow Ruth and her friend Fran. It will consist
- 0:14Speaker 1: of two teams with a strong connection with Alex. It's
- 0:17Speaker 1: the Blue Light Legends, a team of policemen as Alex
- 0:20Speaker 1: was in the force against Owls All Stars, which is
- 0:24Speaker 1: made up of Alex's friends and family. It's going to
- 0:28Speaker 1: take place at the Folks and In Victor Ground on Saturday,
- 0:30Speaker 1: the eighteenth of April. Dates open at twelve thirty with
- 0:34Speaker 1: the kickoff at two twenty two. Now this is because
- 0:37Speaker 1: there's going to be a two minute silence at two
- 0:40Speaker 1: twenty and then they're going to start the game. There'll
- 0:43Speaker 1: be a bouncy castle for the kids and singer Ellie
- 0:46Speaker 1: Luise will be entertaining the crowd for an hour before
- 0:49Speaker 1: the game. There'll be an after party at the Dugout

- 0:58Speaker 1: that's sixteen and upwards. Two pounds for children that's ages
- 1:02Speaker 1: two to fifteen and under twos are free. And as
- 1:06Speaker 1: I said, this is raising money for Pilgrim's hospices. Last
- 1:11Speaker 1: year they did a football match and they raised money
- 1:13Speaker 1: for Cancer Research UK. But these two charities are special
- 1:18Speaker 1: to the family, and the hospice is a special place
- 1:21Speaker 1: in a lot of people's hearts in this area. So
- 1:24Speaker 1: why not come along, have a great football funday and
- 1:26Speaker 1: at the same time support a Pilgrim's hospice. And the
- 1:29Speaker 1: good news is I'm pleased to say that Ruth and
- 1:32Speaker 1: Fran are coming in on the Saturday Show with Me
- 1:35Speaker 1: and Ady on Saturday the fourth of April to tell
- 1:37Speaker 1: us all about it. So more summer songs, now ere
- 1:40Speaker 1: we go. We've got to play. This one is the Beatles,
- 1:43Speaker 1: and let's hope that it stays with us because here
- 1:46Speaker 1: comes the Sun. It comes Sun.
