Food and Drink Festival

HE YOUTH teams of Torquay United and Plymouth Argyle will top the bill at the first three-day South Devon Football, Food & Drink Festival at Bovey Tracey this weekend.

The young Gulls, in only their second season since reforming last summer, will hope to put down a marker for the campaign ahead - especially if they should meet their Puma Alliance Youth League rivals.

United are still searching for a successor to joint youth manager Paul Compton, whose contract was not renewed at the end of last season.

But, in the interim, the club's College Coordinator Robbie Herrera, an experienced man in his own right, is running the department with Compton's colleague Matt Williams.

The original field of eight teams has come down to six, but that means that the whole tournament will be played on Bovey's No.1 Mill Marsh Park pitch.

United, Bovey Tracey and Kingsteignton Athletic are in League A, and Argyle, Dawlish Town and Topsham Town in League B.

The competition (matches run for 30mins each-way) will kick off with United against Bovey Tracey tomorrow at 5.30pm, followed by Argyle against Topsham Town at 7pm.

Saturday fixtures feature Bovey v Kingsteignton (12 noon), Topsham v Dawlish (2pm), Torquay v Kingsteignton (4pm) and Plymouth v Dawlish (6pm).

After a 5th & 6th Play-Off at 1pm, Sunday matches will see the Winner of League A play the Runner-up in League B at 3pm and the Winner of League B against the Runner-up in League A at 5pm.

The Final will start 7.30pm.
