David's grandson, Nathaniel Whessell, is one of the organisers of the match,
He said:
"Our Grandpa was a big supporter of Chestnut Tree House and was heavily into his football.
"It’s a shame he isn’t around to see it, but I know he’d be really proud.
"Chestnut Tree House was important to him, and I know he’d be pleased we’re continuing to raise money for the charity in his memory.”
The family held their inaugural event last year at Portslade Sports Centre, raising more than £2,500 for the children’s hospice.
“This year, we want to go bigger and better,” adds Nathaniel. "As well as the football match, there will be a bouncy castle, raffle, some fun activities for the kids, a bar serving refreshments, hot food, freshly prepared pizzas and much more.
