Funds to help Ben

CLUB STATEMENT

** NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART **

As a new club in our first competitive season we are devastated to be dealing with an issue like this so early in our grassroots career.

Ben has suffered a broken/dislocated ankle with 5 fractures throughout his tibia. Due to the twist it has caused he has already been through 2 surgeries and has had pins to stabalise.

We all play this game for the love of the sport knowing this is a risk we all take, however none of us ever believe it will be us that it happens to.

Ben is one of the most selfless, kindhearted players we have, a true gentleman giant. Proven in the game with his multiple clubman awards

Not only have we lost one our starting 11 players that will ultimately affect our season but ben has also lost the ability to make an income and provide for his family.

With Ben being self employed and now out of work for at least 3-6 months are looking to the grassroots community to help one of our own in this time and help Ben with some funds or a share of the link to spread the awareness.

We wish Ben a speedy recovery and hope hes back on his feet as soon as possible.

All proceeds will go to Ben and his family.
