Good Afternoon,
This year will be Ronnie's 20 year anniversary. We are holding a charity event on the 18th April 2026 at Haslemere Rec from 11:30 with the "Ronnie Boyne Memorial Trophy" up for grabs.
The two charities we'll be raising money for are:
South West Surrey Domestic Abuse - 1200638
This charity provides support to men, woman and children who are affected by domestic violence in Haslemere and surrounding areas.
The second charity is:
Jigsaw South East - 1147696
They provide information and guidance to help support children and young people facing or coping with the death of a loved one. They support families in Surrey and nearby areas.
I was 14 years old when Ronnie passed away on the 16th July 2006 from anaphylactic shock whilst at Guilfest. Whilst I received overwhelming support from family, my friends, Ronnie's friends and both football teams I never really got the right support professionally so a charities like Jigsaw are vital.
Three weeks after Ronnie passing the Hammer family rallied round and decided to put together a memorial match to raise money to help Lisa and myself get through the tough time.
Ronnie joined Hammer in 2004 after playing for Haslemere and Shottermill - the night before his debut he went out, came on second half and scored 4 goals. So the first memorial game was held between the two teams.
We decided to carry on with The Ronnie Memorial games for years to come, with more teams getting involved raising money for various charites.
We want to mark the occasion with the biggest day to date.
Five teams
BBQ
Raffl e
Auction (some great prizes already)
Family fun
Live music (The Genuine Counterfeits)
Disco (Disco Dave)
We want as many people involved as possible. Anyone who has played with, against or not at all, are all welcome!
⚽️
Although it's Ronnie's 20 year anniversary tournament, we will be taking time to remember the other loved ones we have lost since.
Dean and Rose Woods were a MASSIVE part in organising these events over the years. Also will also be remembering Jaz Bush with BC Construction putting in team.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME wether you can give up half hour or a larger part of your day the support will be appreciated by all involved.
Much Love,
Ryan 💙💛
