Biggleswade Rugby Club has now installed a brand new memorial bench on the club's famous mound. The bench, made and generously donated by Anglia Steelcraft, is in loving memory of former Biggleswade minis and youth player Matt King OBE, who was also recently honoured with a charity memorial match at the club.

You can read more about Matt here, on the Just Giving Matthew King OBE Memorial Game page which has already raised over £4000 for Variety, the Children's Charity. Please consider donating; Variety was a charity which Matt himself credited with helping him overcome his adversity when they funded a customised, mouth-controlled wheelchair for him when he was paralysed from the neck down as a teenager. Don't forget, you can still also order the pink game kit from the match, with each purchase including a donation to Variety.
