A number of football teams in Kent held Remembrance tributes at their weekend games.

Maidstone, Ebbsfleet and Dover all observed a period of silence ahead of their FA Cup first round matches.

Gillingham held their tribute at Priestfield the previous weekend ahead of their match with Rotherham, as it was the home game closest to the official Remembrance Day.
