Whoever wins the bidding to play in goal for the supporters’ teams against Manager Andy Hessenthaler’s Invitational XI in the fundraising match at Crabble on August 8th could be in for a busy afternoon!!
Our former forwards Adam Birchall, Frannie Collin, Matt Carruthers, and Nathan Elder are all coming back to play …
They will be joined by James Strouts, Craig Stone, Craig Cloke, Lee Shearer, Sammy Moore, Connor Essam, and James Rogers.
The match, which kicks-off at 1pm, will also see Hess and Nicky Southall return to the playing field.
More players will be revealed over the coming week, and if you are keen to play against them, here’s how to do it.
Two teams of supporters will play – one in the first half before the other plays the second, meaning 22 spots are available for anyone aged 17 and over.
Those interested in playing need to bid on what team they would like to play for, first or second half, and what position they want to play.
Bidding starts at £50 and included in that price will be your official match shirt – a replica, regular fit, blue Kappa one – which you will keep.
Goalkeepers will also get an official shirt too.
If anyone would like to be the manager for the supporters’ teams on the day and sit in the dugout etc, they can bid on that too!
In order to submit a bid, simply email richard.harvey@doverathletic.com with your maximum bid amount, shirt size, position you want to play, which half, and the best contact number you can be reached on.
If you are outbid, we will contact you.
Don’t delay, bid today as we have already had a great response to play.
