On Saturday 14th March a number of the Redhill teams got together to hold a pyjama match to raise money for the Red Nose Charity. Players and parents from the U8’s, U9’s, U12’s, U13’s and U14’s gathered for the event with Martin Brownjohn officiating. Although the game started between the two older teams and a couple of mums, it wasn’t long before a flurry of substitutions saw the younger players enter the fray. The game was pretty even but by half time the greens were ahead by two goals from Bradley O’Connor (U12) and Jack Stevens (U12). With so many players on the pitch the ref had his work cut out so he cut the odds with a regular flash of the red card. Under 14’s Coach Adrian Steventon was sent off at the start of the second half for wearing an unflattering nightie. Ben Senior (U9) and Elliott Steventon (U14) equalled the scores for the reds but it wasn’t long before Charlie Case Green (U9) went on a skilful run beating the two mums, Kaye and Paula (U45), to take the lead once more for the greens. Just Before the final whistle Michael Lawrence (U14) managed to equalise for a well deserved draw. Deirdre Heinrich won best outfit for the day for her jammies and curlers. The event was a great success and Redhill Juniors have managed to collect over £400 for this worthy cause.
