New £20,000 grassroots fund launched for Wakefield-based football clubs to access new equipment
Grassroots football clubs across Wakefield can now take advantage of a new £20,000 fund aimed at providing teams with equipment for the new season.
The West Riding County FA, the football governing body across the Wakefield region, has partnered with sports education and equipment brand Davies Sports to give all affiliated clubs the opportunity access high-quality equipment.
Clubs in Wakefield need to register for the new grassroots football fund to be considered for a £100 credit voucher to use on equipment including footballs, football goals and matchday equipment.
Additional Davies Sports benefits, which clubs can access by registering for the fund, also include an annual 20 per cent off voucher.
Affiliated clubs have until Wednesday, September 30 to sign up to the first part of the £20,000 annual grant.
As well as Wakefield, The West Riding County FA oversees all aspects of the game across Leeds, Bradford and Craven, Calderdale, Skipton, Wakefield, Selby and Harrogate.
CEO of the West Riding County FA, Hannah Simpson, said: “We are delighted to partner with Davies Sports to provide this fantastic opportunity for our affiliated accredited clubs.
“Grassroots football thrives when clubs have the right resources in place, and this fund will help ensure our teams have access to quality equipment to support players, coaches and volunteers throughout the season.”
