Basford United have confirmed that a percentage of the proceeds made from their pre-season fixture with Notts County next month will be donated to charity following the passing of newly appointed chairman Jamie Brough.
Luke Williams’ Magpies make the short trip across the city on Tuesday, July 5 (7.45pm), and a portion of gate receipts will be presented to the Brough family pre-match by representatives of both clubs with their full support.
The final total will later be donated to Sport in Mind, the UK’s leading mental health sports charity. Brough had been appointed at Greenwich Avenue only a few days prior to his death and members of the Sports Gateway community – his company, founded in 2015 – will also be in attendance.
