Chatham Town’s community day takes place at the Bauvill Stadium on Saturday and includes free entry to their pre-season friendly against Coventry City

Saturday’s ‘the perfect time’ to show some support to Chatham Town.

Chats are opening up their doors for free this Saturday when they welcome a Coventry City XI to the Bauvill Stadium - and there’s plenty more going on.

Chatham Town’s community day starts on Saturday morning and it’s a chance to meet the players of both the men’s and senior women’s teams and enjoy live entertainment too.

The club will have family activities on throughout the day, with a bouncy castle, while there will also be a 3 vs 3 event and a technical ballers challenge.

Chats will then take on Coventry City at 3pm for the second season running, a meeting that stems from Harvey Broad’s move to the Championship side for an undisclosed fee last summer.

Looking ahead to their big day, first-team boss and chairman Kevin Hake said: “This Saturday is a big one for us — we’re hosting our Community Day at the club from 11am.

“It’s free entry, and it’s a great chance for people to come down, meet the players and staff, enjoy some family activities, and get a real feel for what Chatham Town is all about.

“We’re also playing Coventry City later in the day, which will proper test against strong opposition, and a great opportunity for supporters to see us in action.

“Whether you’re a lifelong fan or you’ve never been before – Saturday’s the perfect day to come along and join the growing Chats Army.”
