Kick It Out day comes to Plainmoor

KICK IT OUT: United's home game against Morecambe on Saturday will mark One Game One Community – Kick It Out day at Plainmoor.

BACKING WANTED: United's Football In The Community Sports Trust are looking for sponsors for the club's Inspirations Disability Football team.

Anyone interested should contact 01803 322551 or frankprince@torquayunited.com or davina@torquayunited.com.

Many happy returns

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: To United midfielder Damon Lathrope – he'll be 23 on Sunday.
