A NEW amateur football team is holding a fundraiser later this month as the new season gets under way.
Garry O’Connor Football Academy has entered the Lothian and Edinburgh Amateur Football Association (LEAFA).
The new season kicks off on Saturday and the club, which will play its home games at Meadowmill, is hosting a race night on August 27.
The fundraiser takes place at The Tower Inn in Tranent and admission to the event is £5.
The first race gets under way at 7.30pm and an auction will also be held on the night.
Tickets can be purchased from anyone associated with the club.
