Comets are ready to land in Clacton
9:30am Friday 27th July 2012 in Sport By Matt Plummer
HISTORY will be made when American Football graces Clacton on Saturday.
New team Clacton Comets are doing battle with Leeds Bobcats in a match at Clacton Rugby Club, in Valley Road.
The contest is a friendly in aid of Cancer Research UK, with entry costing just £1.
But after months of anticipation and preparation, the Comets will be desperate to kick-off with a victory in front of a crowd expected to be in excess of 600.
The fun starts at noon, with the match kicking-off at 2.30pm.
