In case fans arnt aware there is a community led football festival today at HTC.
A seven aside tournament captained, by various current players , and old favourites like Darren McGregor, food and drink is available, with junior games at 12, main event 2pm .
Look on hibs main Wednesday site, were donations can be made, to Hibs community foundation.
I AM UNCLEAR ON ANY OTHER DETAILS, I just donated this morning .
nice day for it if anything like weather where I am - would have popped in if I was still living near HTC
I enjoyed it, mainly because I landed up refereeing all block 7 games, the eventual winners.
I gave a controversial, penalty, but almost immediately evened things up , by cancelling a good goal, with a foul on the goalkeeper.😃
Did they have their balaclavas on ?Quote:

Was there on pitch 7? I think B7 were the only team that didn't have to rotate pitches? I didn't bother leaving the main 3 pitches as the loos and catering were there and wasn't following a team round.
Think your reading to much into this, it was a football fun day, for a good cause no set criteria, throw ins on that pitch, kick ins on others.Quote:

Just a nice day out.
Caddens are certainly competitive…

Not reading too much into anything. It's just confusing that there appears to have been refereeing where most games didn't have it. Surprised to hear it even happened. It wasn't needed in the games I watched. Other teams has primary kids, pensioners and women in them. Genuinely fun games.Quote:
