MEMBERS of the Boro team who lifted the Premier League All Stars trophy to raise £100,000 for two Teesside charities will parade the cup around the Riverside pitch when Boro host Tottenham this Saturday.

The All Stars team, comprising former players, celebrities and supporters, will be welcomed onto the pitch 10 minutes before kick-off to receive applause from Boro fans.

They beat West Ham in the seven-a-side final to scoop the £100,000 jackpot for two charities nominated by the football club, Butterwick House Children's Hospice and Teesside Hospice.

The charities will each receive cheques for £50,000 when Middlesbrough Football Club hosts a sell-out celebration dinner at the Riverside Stadium on Friday November 16.

The celebration dinner, which will take place in the Riverside's Legends Lounge, aims to raise further funds for the two hospices.

It will be attended by every member of Boro's All Stars team, including former stars Craig Hignett, Mikkel Beck, Bernie Slaven and Jim Platt. Singer Alistair Griffin, who scored a late winner in the final, will also be there, as will former world speedway champion Gary Havelock, actor Mark Stobbart and fans Tony Rovardi, Julian McGuire and Steven Aithwaite.

Boro's winning team will take part in a question-and-answer session, while Alistair Griffin will be on the mic to entertain guests.

The event sold out in just three days. Representatives of both hospices will there on the night to receive the cheques from Boro and the Premier League.

The All Stars competition was part of Creating Chances, the Premier League's flagship community initiative which led to many Teesside causes receiving Boro player appearances and £2,000 cheques.

Middlesbrough FC and the Boro players threw their weight behind Creating Chances over a three-week period, with 25 local causes each receiving £2,000.

Boro stars also paid high-profile visits to eight local good causes. These included Gareth Southgate playing wheelchair football at Abbey Hill Special School in Stockton, Jonathan Woodgate taking part in a stopwatch challenge at Teesside Hospice, Stewart Downing judging a rap and MC competition for the Safer Middlesbrough Partnership and George Boateng judging a competition for Boro's Enterprise Academy.
