Peebles Rovers tribute to marine Alec Lucas
Peebles Rovers are to rename the main stand of their ground after a former player killed while serving with the Royal Marines in Afghanistan.
Alec Lucas died in November 2008 following an explosion while on patrol in Helmand province.
The 24-year-old was a talented footballer and played for several local teams, including the Peebles side.
Since his death his family and friends have organised a fundraising football tournament in his honour.
Ahead of this year's tournament, an unveiling ceremony will take place on 31 May at the newly-named Alexander Lucas Stand.
A large commemorative plaque has been designed and crafted for inside the stand with a smaller plaque to be positioned on the exterior of the building.
Since the Alec Lucas Memorial Trust was formed in the months after his death it has raised close to £90,000 for marines' charities as well as the support and promotion of local grassroots football.
