Morecambe FC's first ever football team for Armed Forces veterans has been formed and we've been finding out all about it.
The new team has been launched by Morecambe FC Community Foundation, the charitable arm of the football club, who run a successful project supporting Forces veterans.
So far around 15 players have signed up for the team, who train on Thursday evenings at the 3G pitches near the Mazuma.
The team will be managed by Daniel Murray, and will play league matches at Leyland.
