When Laurimar cricket and football clubs take to the field on Sunday in a T20 match, there will be more than pride on the line.

The two clubs will be raising funds to help Jordan Woolnough, who was left with spinal injury after a freak accident at training.

Cricket coach Adam Drinkwell said Woolnough tripped at cricket training. It left him in hospital after fracturing his C3, C4, C5 and C6.

Woolnough can now breath on his own but faces months of rehab in hospital.

He has no movement from his wait down and will be moved to the spinal ward in the coming weeks.

The cricket and football clubs will face each other in the T20 cricket match with all players to pay to play.

There will also be auction and raffles.

The match is at Laurimar Reserve from March 27.
