A MEMORIAL seven-a-side football tournament in memory of former Tavistock College teacher Ashley Tossell will be taking place at the all weather pitch at Crowndale on Sunday, December 27, kicking off at 10am.

Everybody is invited to join in the fun —either as a player or spectator. There will be a maximum of ten mixed players, male and female. Teams will be sorted on the day. Every team must pay £20 entry fee which will be donated to a chosen charity by Ashley’s children, Natalie and Barney.

Sue Hammond, one of the organisers, said: ‘This is a special tournament as we didn’t have a pot of money to start with and everything we have achieved has been done by the people of Tavistock. 

‘We are going ahead whatever the weather.’ 

Organisers hope this fun tournament proves popular and becomes an annual event.
