Charity fixture: Lincoln City Legends vs Anglian Water
The LNER Stadium is hosting a charity football match made up of former Lincoln City players as they face a team representing Anglian Water, the match will be on Sunday 21 May with an 11am kickoff. This will raise funds for Carers First, supporting unpaid carers in Lincolnshire, who also partner with Anglian Water. In 2022 Carers First were one of the Charity of the Year's chosen for Lincoln City.
A host of former Imp favourites including Simon Yeo, Danny Hone, Lee Beevers, Gavin Gordon and Scott Kerr will take on the Anglian Water team.
This fixture has been organised by the Lincoln City Former Players Association and Anglian Water and Imps fans are encouraged to attend to show their support.
All proceeds from this event will go to support unpaid carers in Lincoln as well as the Former Players Association chosen charity, Lincoln City Foundation Extra Time Hub.
2 in 3 of us will look after someone in our lifetime whether because of older age, disability or serious illness.
Carers can struggle to balance employment, finances, or time for themselves with their caring role. Your support will make sure Carers First can continue to be there for carers in Lincolnshire, helping them find balance, and to live their lives to the fullest – today, and for years to come.
The game will take place on Sunday 21 May, 11am kickoff, with tickets priced at £8 for adults and £2 for children (aged 18 and under).
Everyone who buys a ticket before Wednesday 17 May will be entered into a prize draw with three lucky fans selected to take a penalty in a half-time competition. The lucky fans will be contacted ahead of the game to confirm they would like to take part.
