Who are we?
We are the Junior Tykes U8 Girls’ Team, a passionate group of young footballers in Barnsley. Our team provides a fun, supportive, and inclusive space for girls to develop their skills, build confidence, and be part of a growing grassroots football community.
Why are we crowdfunding?
We’re raising funds to keep our grassroots girls' football team thriving in Barnsley! Your support will help cover training equipment, kits, tournament fees, and essential running costs—giving these young players the chance to develop skills, confidence, and a love for the game.
How we’ll spend the money raised
At this crucial stage in their football journey, we want to give these girls the best opportunities to train, compete, and grow—but we need your support to cover essential costs like training equipment, kits, and tournament entries.
With your help, we can keep the team thriving and inspire the next generation of female footballers! ⚽💙
Community impact
The Junior Tykes U8 girls' team is more than just football—it’s about confidence, teamwork, and opportunity. In Barnsley, grassroots football gives young girls a safe space to play, grow, and dream big. Your support helps provide kits, equipment, and coaching, ensuring every girl has a chance to thrive on and off the pitch. Together, we can build a stronger, more inclusive future through sport!
