Burgess Hill Town’s triple winning Sussex County League squads managed by Alan Pook will be re-uniting at Leylands Park for a reunion for the Hillians league match against Phoenix Sports on 29th March.

The three years Pook managed the Leylands Park outfit was probably the most successful period in the clubs history and kick started their rise up to the Isthmian League following a spell of dominance of Sussex football in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s.

The Hillians won the Sussex County League three years running (96/97, 97/98 and 98/99) whilst also winning plenty of cups as well as some very memorable FA Vase runs with victories over Canvey Island and Clitheroe being particularly memorable as Pook assembled one of the finest squads in the Hill’s history and arguably one of the best squads in Sussex football has seen.

This season the Hillians are enjoying an excellent season and currently sit third in the table and the former players and management will be in attendance for the game on Saturday March 29th against Phoenix Sports where they will be on the pitch before the game.

Along with Pook those confirmed attending include inspirational former skipper Daren Newman, legendary striker Ashley Carr, Mickey and Graham Farmer, Richard Cheal, Paul Thomsett, Rene Duchossoy and plenty more of Sussex’ finest players who wore the Hillians colours during that period.

Players from that era are invited to arrive at the ground for 2pm and being given free entry. To add your name to the guestlist please email through to davebradbury02@gmail.com
