A CREDITON United Football Club committee member was honoured for 50 years’ service to the club before and after the home game against Bovey Tracey at the club’s Lords Meadow ground on Saturday, September 2.

A guard of honour was formed for Chris Gillard by the players from both teams prior to the match.

There was also a display of photographs of Chris in the clubhouse, many from his time as a player for the club.

Presentations were made to Chris following the match.

A large crowd of spectators attended to watch the game and congratulate Chris on his achievement.
