AUCKLAND, New Zealand - Mount Albert Ponsonby and Central United have set the date for the second annual Brian Stanyer Memorial Trophy for Saturday 10 March 2018.
The Brian Stanyer Memorial Trophy marks the passing of the Mount Albert-Ponsonby stalwart who died on October 12, 2016.
Stanyer commanded a strong presence in the colours of the club he fell in love with as a first team player in 1977.He later held coaching and management roles for the club’s senior teams with the Anderson Park outfit.
Stanyer had an extensive record of volunteering to coach and manage club teams which later led to executive roles.
The idea of an annual match between Mount Albert-Ponsonby and near neighbours Central United was mooted by Auckland City FC chairman Ivan Vuksich and has quickly brought the two clubs and the football community closer together.
Last year's inaugural memorial match was a huge success with supporters of both Mount Albert Ponsonby, Central United and Auckland City FC coming together in the spirit of friendship and support.
