A CHARITY game in memory of Bromsgrove Rovers legend Mark Crisp will take place at the Victoria Ground later this year.
Crisp, who made close to 350 appearances for Rovers and scored 91 goals, died at the age of 60 in October 2024.
He memorably scored the opening goal for Rovers against Barnsley in the FA Cup third round back in 1993/94.
Rovers eventually lost the game 2-1 after Barnsley scored two late goals in front of 4,893 fans at the Victoria Ground.
And his son Max has set up a charity game in his father’s memory.
The match will take place on Sunday, March 22 with kick-off at 11am at the Victoria Ground.
A Bromsgrove Rovers XI will take on a Birmingham City All Stars side.
All proceeds from the game will go directly to the Primrose Hospice.
The Rovers XI will feature legends from the club’s glory days in the 1990s.
And Birmingham’s squad will feature former Blues players including ex-Premier League stars.
A raffle with prizes, including matchday shirts from Jack Grealish and Morgan Rogers, will also take place on the day with the bar to remain open throughout.
Details regarding tickets will be announced in due course but tickets and programmes will be available to purchase on the day.
Max has set up a fundraiser in his dad’s memory. To donate, visit: www.justgiving.com/page/markcrisp10
