Tudors Planning To Keep Cash Rolling In For Brave Spencer

Hemel Hempstead have vowed to do all they can to help midfielder Spencer McCall through his cancer battle - and the next stop is a benefit game.

Last month the Tudors helped to raise £10,000 for his recovery.

Now on May 11 they will host a Legends game against their Southern League title winning heroes.

Hemel, with the player and his family’s permission, detailed the 24-year-old’s off field battles after his sudden diagnosis.

“Many of you will know that Spencer has struggled with injury since the end of last season,” a statement read.

“With no sign of the injury clearing up Spencer has spent a lot of time at the doctors and hospital trying to determine exactly what the problem is.

“Initially Spencer was told that he had a fracture in his lower leg, however a few weeks ago Spencer was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, which is a rare type of bone cancer and he is currently undergoing a course of chemotherapy.

“Spencer is 24 years old and has been with the club since signing from Wingate & Finchley in October 2017.

“In that time it is blatantly obvious to anyone that has met Spencer what a great lad he is. Spencer is tackling this with the same determination he shows on the football pitch, head on and with everything he has got.

“All of our thoughts and best wishes go out to Spencer and his family at this time, we look forward to seeing him back at Vauxhall Road in better health soon.”
