Ahead of the Coronation celebrations, Rase Park will be hosting two other community events.

This Saturday, April 22, will be the first inter-cadet force match for the Tranter Challenge Cup.

As previously reported, in what is hoped to become an annual event, the cup match has been organised by the Tealby & Market Rasen Branch of The Royal British Legion to honour long-serving member Les Tranter.

Kick off is at 3pm, with the club house open for drinks and food from 2pm.

Everyone is welcome to go along and cheer on the town’s army and air cadets and see who raises the trophy.

In between the two events, there will be a family fun day organised by Market Rasen Town Ladies.

Running from 2pm on Sunday, April 30, there will be football, a raffle, barbecue and games.

Proceeds from this event will go towards the Market Rasen Ladies Football Team.

More information on all these events can be found on the club’s Facebook page.
