Latest press release

The Robert Eaton Memorial Fund
------------------------------------------------

The Robert Eaton Memorial Fund was borne from the terrorist attacks in New York on 11/9/01 when Robert Eaton an avid Brighton & Hove Albion supporter was working in the Twin Towers and was one of the 67 Britons who died that terrible day.

The fund came together with a special charity football match in November 2001 when Brighton & Hove Albion FC supporters and Crystal Palace FC supporters put aside fierce rivalry to play in Robert Eaton’s honour. The fund supports children to play football in the name of Robert Eaton and supports youngsters from 5-16 who may not otherwise be given the opportunity or resources to play.

We have given a 3 year funding package to Los Peladitos from Queen’s, New York to 230 Hispanic under privileged children.

In the last couple of years the fund has given support and funding to 7 local football clubs in the Brighton & Hove area, Fishersgate Association, St George United, Portslade Athletic/Southwick Dynamo’s, ASC Strikers, Fishersgate Flyers, Peacehaven’s Meridian FC and a club in Croydon called Wickham Wanderers has last year been given four sets of brand new kit in recognition of the fantastic support Crystal Palace fans have given.

In December 2006 , The Robert Eaton Memorial Fund gave a 3 year coaching package to youngsters in Mali , Africa to play football and be coached. These children are orphans as their parents have been taken by the Aids crisis.

The fund raised £ 25000 in the few months after 11/9/01 and we have played 5 anniversary football matches, 3 at Withdean, the home of Brighton & Hove Albion and 5 golf days and the fund has raised over £ 45000 in total from matches, donations and auctions.

The fund will continue to organize an annual football match and golf day and is about to launch an on line auction.

We are keen to continue to support local football clubs for children from 5-16 years old in the Sussex and Croydon areas in the future.

The Robert Eaton Memorial Fund are staging the 6th annual football match at Lewes FC on Friday 27th April , 7.30 pm kick off and are planning the 6th annual Golf day for Summer 2007.

This fund has given pleasure to hundreds of children from New York, Africa, Brighton and Croydon who may not have had the opportunities to play football. What better way to honour Robert Eaton’s memory.

All Brighton and Hove Albion and Crystal Palace supporters and all the people who have helped or donated can be very proud of this fund and what they have done. It just shows what can be achieved as a beacon of light from such a terrible tragedy.

I thought this was a fans game rather than an former pro's game.

All for Ricky Marlow as there is the link with Robert Eaton, but is other former players really in the spirit of the thing?

Piers, it was put to the BHAFC and CPFC supporters and 2 ex pro's max was agreed. Paul Rogers has done a lot of good work with the REMF Golf which he has played in for the last 4 years and always gets some BHAFC stuff for us as well, he asked whether he could play and it was agreed subject to Fatboy picking him of course. 2 max though as it is a fans game primarily.

Fair enough.

Just it does have the danger of it turning into a game full of former players, rather than the fans game that it always has been.

Anyway, email gone out to the GDC to raise funds, so will report back.
