Andrew Massey had a lifetime interest in sport, particularly football and golf. As Chairman of the Army Football Association he did much to regenerate inter-unit competition. Before leaving the Army he presented the Massey Trophy to be played each season by the Corps Teams. He sadly passed away in retirement at Hereford on 19th August 1998 but his legacy continues as the Massey Trophy has become the most prestigious corps football competition within the Army.
