The brainchild of former goalkeeper and entertainer Mark Carter, the event on December 28 is a way of reuniting players who may not have seen each other for years.
He said: “It’s about the third one we’ve had. Last year we had about 20 or 25 come from all over Teesdale. You get lads turning up that you’ve not seen for years. We have a great laugh together.”
Last year the group took in the Cricketers’ Arms, Cricket Club, Coach and Horses, Three Horseshoes and ended up at 12 Bar Blues.
This year the footballers will be starting at the Three Horseshoes at 6pm and will travel around to end again at 12 Bar Blues, where landlord and former footballer Ian Swinburn has arranged for live music.
Mr Carter added: “This is an open invitation to all footballers, managers and coaches to meet up for one night of the year and have a bit of banter and a few drinks. New or old faces, everyone is welcome.”
