Buckie High School is to be the venue for Moray's latest midnight football league.
It will be the fourth time that Buckie has hosted the popular Friday night league which is designed to give 12 to 16-year-olds something to do in the evenings.
Local law firm Antons have generously donated the bulk of the funding for the forthcoming league, which begins on August 22 and continues until October 10.
The Buckie Local Community Network and Cullen and Deskford Community Council have also provided funding.
Grampian Police have demonstrated their ongoing support by helping to pull together the funding and officers will be in attendance on Friday evenings to help build relationships with the young people.
The level of funding means it will be possible to provide transport for young people from outlying areas to ensure they are able to participate in the league.
The football sessions will run from 9pm to 11.30pm and players can enter either individually or as a team.
Further information and application forms are available by calling Moray Council sports development officer Kim Paterson on 01343 563657.
