Local derby match in honour of youngster
This season’s new crop of players will be defending the trophy they won last year when they take on league rivals Matlock (7.45pm) in what has become an annual pre-season clash in memory of young Matlock footballer Jack O’Dare.
Following successive promotions since their formation two years ago, the Young Bucks are preparing for the new season and the challenge of playing in the top division of the North Midlands Under-19s League.
