A Love Island star is among the new names announced for the celebrity football match.
The Sellebrity Soccer event will take place on Saturday, October 21 at 3pm at the Avenue Stadium, Dorchester.
As previously reported by the Echo, the game was postponed due to the commitments of other celebrities.
At the time, co-founder of Sellebrity Soccer events Kevin Hooper said that new names will be announced closer to the time.
Love Island star Ouzy See is among the list of celebs to be playing at the event. Ouzy is a footballer for Edinburgh City but shot to fame after spending three weeks in the ITV2 villa. The show saw him coupling up with Kady McDermott but they have since split up.
Joining Ouzy will be freestyle footballer Jeremy Lynch. Jeremy is part of the F2Freestylers duo and scored in the 2018 Soccer Aid game. Their YouTube channel has over 14 million subscribers.
Calum Best will also be at the game. The son of legendary Manchester United footballer George Best appeared on several reality TV shows including Celebrity Big Brother twice as well as Ex on the Beach and Celebs Go Dating will be trading TV for the football pitch.
Singer James Arthur, below, who won The X-Factor in 2012, has also been confirmed for the rearranged date.
The game will raise funds for Tommy's Charity, which campaigns to find causes and treatments to save babies’ lives as well as pregnancy and baby loss support.
Mr Hooper said: “We’ve been all over the country the last 12 months raising money for so many causes, getting good numbers at these games.
“We hope that the people of Dorchester come out for this charity match for what promises to be a great game of football.”
Mr Hooper went on to say that the score lines are usually high, with one game finishing 9-9.
Tickets for the match start at £12 and can be bought via Eventbrite by searching for 'Celebrity Charity Football Match at Dorchester Town FC'.
