BROADSTONE (BOYS) FOOTBALL CLUB

As part of the celebrations of the Club’s Silver Jubilee, we are endeavouring to hold a reunion of our founder team, Broadstone Boys Under 11’s, which was entered into what was then called the Braytown League in season 1982/83. The team had a number of successes throughout the time it was together, finishing up as Under 16’s in the Bournemouth Youth League in 1987/88.

A total of 31 players appeared for the side throughout that six year period, and currently the Club is endeavouring to contact every member with a view to getting as many of them as possible to attend a reunion to be held at the Bridge House Hotel at Longham on Saturday 10th November. The whereabouts of approximately half the players is known, but the Club is currently trying to track down the rest. Anyone who knows the whereabouts of any of the players listed below whose contact details are not known is asked to contact the reunion organiser, Geoff Hare, on gefhare@aol.com or by telephoning 01202 693082.

Geoff, who used to help run the side, and went on to become the Club’s Secretary and then Chairman, stated “they were an absolutely fantastic bunch of lads, were always a joy to work with, and we can’t wait to get as many of them as possible back together again.”
