A KILMARNOCK football legend has joined a community group for a special afternoon of football memories and storytelling.

Mark Reilly, affectionately known as 'Mavis', was the special guest at a recent Killie Football Memories gathering organised by The Killie Community.

The former Kilmarnock FC player spent the afternoon chatting about football, sharing stories from off the pitch and reminiscing with those in attendance.

It provided an opportunity for participants to revisit memorable moments from the club's history while enjoying conversations about the sport.

The charity highlighted the importance of reminiscing in helping people build connections and strengthen friendships.

It explained that sharing memories can encourage conversations, improve confidence and create a sense of belonging among those taking part.

The gathering also demonstrated how football can bring people together through shared experiences and memories.

The Killie Community thanked Mark and everyone who attended the session.
