The Cardiff Bay Lightning and Cardiff Eagles would like to invite you to attend a charity ice hockey match at Cardiff Arena on 5th May at 7pm.

The charity match is being played in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care.

The match will be played in the memory of Marie Payne, mother of Lightning player Dereck Parsons, who tragically lost her battle with cancer in 2012.

In 2012, the Cardiff Bay Lightning and Cardiff Eagles raised £3000 for Clic Sargent, but this year we aim to beat that total.

The hockey community has always been very close and very supportive, so if you would like to donate to Marie Curie Cancer Care, you can either donate via our JustGiving page http://www.justgiving.com/cardiffbaylightning
or if you would like to donate via text message then please TEXT RRAW86 with the amount £1/£2 to 70070

There will be events running down the rink throughout the day, which are due to be confirmed

For more information and to donate, please visit either :-http://www.cardiffbaylightning.co.uk/

We really appreciate your support in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care and we look forward to seeing you on the day.

Thanks
Richard

The game is this Sunday so if you need a hockey fix please come along and support a great cause.

I believe a few current and ex Devils will be guest icing for each team. Also Mac Faulkner has donated some great one time opportunity prizes for the raffle.

The promo video is at this link http://www.youtube.com/user/cardiffeagles

Hi All

Due to unforeseen circumstances, 2 of the players named below are unable to take part in the charity match, so the 100% confirmed players are Ben Davies, Chris Blight and Max Birbraer.

Apologise for any inconvenience with the misinformation.

We look forward to seeing you at the rink tomorrow night.

Thanks
Richard

Hi All

I just wanted to say a massive Thank you to everyone for their support and generosity for this charity match.

By all accounts, it was a resounding success and a great fun filled family evening.

Thank you to Max Birbraer, Chris Blight and Ben Davies from the Cardiff Devils for coming down and playing in the match.

Also a massive thank you to the DJ's, Photographers, Stall holders, entertainers and everyone who made this event truly amazing.

We believe at the moment that we have raised in excess of £5000 in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care.

I will post further information when we get the final total.

Thank you all.
