Chester have confirmed that Jake Griffin is set for an extended period on the sidelines after sustaining a knee injury during the club's fixture against Hednesford Town. The club wished Griffin a speedy recovery.
Separately, Chester announced that Chester FC Community Trust and Down Syndrome Cheshire will hold a 213 Sport Event at the Deva Community Stadium on Saturday 21 November, when the club play Macclesfield. The number 213 refers to the three copies of chromosome 21 that cause Down syndrome.
The club said the day will include three fundraising activities: a physical raffle, stadium fundraising and Crunch for a Cause biscuit sales. The event will support both charities.
Raffle prizes are a football signed by Chester players, a family match ticket for two adults and two children, a £20 gift voucher from Be the Star Posters and a box of Down Syndrome Cheshire biscuits. Tickets cost £1 each and can be bought at the stadium on matchday by cash or card. Sales close at 3pm, with the draw and winning numbers announced at half-time.
Supporters who cannot attend can donate through the Chester FC Community Trust 213 Event page.
