A football match dedicated to talented Medway student Jack Madddams has raised £703 for charity.

Jack's family collected the money during the Ryman Premier League game between Tonbridge Angels and Sutton United on Saturday.  The match was dedicated to the teenager who died suddenly from a rare heart condition at home in Wigmore  on March 20 last year. 

The money raised on the day will go to the charity CRY, Cardiac Risk in the Young, which the Maddams family have supported since Jack's death. 

Saturday's game was a fitting tribute to Jack, who played for the Tonbridge Angels under-18 squad. 

He was also raised a Sutton fan by his father, Roger, who was born close to Sutton's ground. 

Jack was even given the middle name Matthew in honour of Matt Hanlon, who scored Sutton's winning goal against Coventry City in the FA Cup in 1989, the year before Jack was born. 

Roger said: "It was lovely weather and the match was quite lively. 

"Sutton won 3-1 which I was pleased about - after being a Sutton supporter for more than 40 years you can't help but be pleased.  Everyone was very generous on the day.  It wasn't just loose coins that people handed over, we had a wad of notes at the end of it, too. 

"The chairman of Sutton, Bruce Elliot, also invited us to their East Monday game against Carshalton Athletic to raise more money for CRY in memory of Jack, which was very nice of him." 

Two of Jack's friends will raise further funds for the charity when they run the Reading Half Marathon next month.
