We are aiming to beat the existing record of 2,089 signatures with a 40XL home shirt and are now just shy of reaching that total.
We need more help though! If you haven't yet signed it, then come and visit us on Saturday, Please note, signees must bring photo ID.
Football Boots Collection...
Visit the CFU Outlet - located near the Junior U's Kids' Zone - to donate any unwanted Football Boots for our Kenya collection.
We are collecting boots for a girls football team in Kenya that is comprised of a group of extraordinarily brave rescue girls. Al-Walidayn Rescue Centre has a girls' football team that, despite facing immense challenges, have found solace and strength in football.
The girls' team has achieved fantastic success locally, winning several tournaments and earning recognition for their talent and dedication.
We are working alongside Community Interest Company, Give & Tea, to help provide the team with boots that will encourage and empower the girls to chase their dreams.
So, if you have any good-conditioned boots that you no longer need or would like to donate, please visit us before the match on Saturday.
