Crystal Palace FC will commemorate the Centenary of the First World War with a range of activity across the club, including holding a minute’s silence immediately before the Palace v Tottenham Hotspur game on Saturday, 10 November 2018.
The club has planted eight saplings at its Beckenham Training Ground to create a living legacy to its former players who served and died 100 years ago in the First World War. The tree planting is part of a national campaign called Football Remembers, which is a partnership between the Woodland Trust and National Football Museum’s For Club and Country project, as well as the Premier League, English Football League, Professional Footballers’ Association and The Football Association.
