Teenage footballers will entertain Darlington fans at tonight's match in the Williamson Motors Stadium.
The Stingers - a team set up through the Wear Valley Youth Inclusion Programme - will play a game of five-a-side during half time as the Quakers take on Mansfield Town.
The players, aged between 13 and 16, are all from Bishop Auckland. They train at the Sunnydale Leisure Centre, in Shildon, as part of the football in the community scheme.
The boys will be packing bags in Sainsbury's, Victoria Road, Darlington, on Friday, to raise funds to buy presents for Bishop Auckland General Hospital's children's ward.
