Longhope FC held their first “Legends Cup” recently in honour of Wayne Clark, a former player who sadly passed away in 2015.

The current Longhope side took on the Longhope Legends, which included a team of ex-Longhope players and team mates of Wayne.

A crowd of over 300 people came to the game, and a fundraiser for the club is coming next season.

The game finished with a score of 6-1 to the current side, but was very competitive.

Music on the day was provided by Sara Jeffery, who performed for over three hours. The BBQ and bar went down a treat with the locals too.

The Clark family would like to thank everyone who helped make this day special. They told the Ross Gazette that Wayne would have loved it.See this week’s paper for more stories like this, available in shops and as a Digital Edition now.
