Are the club strips, football boots, balls, bits and bobs spilling out of your kit bag? Do you really want or need all that gear?

Take it along to Links Avenue Reserve this weekend. That's where the Tauranga City United Labour Weekend Football tournament is being held.

And they want all your excess personal and club kit, all your pre-loved football gear. It'll be packed up and delivered to who the club says are 'New Zealand's most vulnerable people to help them connect and be inspired through the beautiful game”.

The Tauranga City United tournament tomorrow and Sunday has been running for 17 years and attracts teams from around the country. And they're all being asked to donate their excess football gear to those who the less fortunate.

It'll be packed and distributed by the Reagan Milstein Foundation – the memory and name of a 14-year-old, who loved sport, loved helping others and died tragically in a scuba diving accident lives on in the foundation.

The football club and foundation have partnered up Football Music Culture, which brings music to events at all levels of football. It's a social enterprise that supports humanity through sport and art. FMC will bring globe-hopping beat-maker, Shekay – AKA Kate Foot – to the Links Avenue Reserve football event.
