New East Field Astro

Aim: With a new astro we can have two pitches in use on the East field for junior age groups.

Who are we?

St.James's Montefiore CC is a growing local cricket , looking to expand our facilities due to partnerships with local schools.

Why are we crowdfunding?

We need to have more game areas on the Eastfield and are looking to raise £5000 to match the amount already approved by sport England. Our growing youth section and partnerships with Downlands School and Burgess Hill School for girls will help us grow the club so we have to have facilities to match.

If you're applying for extra funding, this is a good place to demonstrate why your project is eligible so refer back to the criteria to help complete this section

How we’ll spend the money raised

The installation and soil movement will cost in excess of £10,000 so we are keen to get this funded as soon as possible so that its ready for this season.

Community impact

It’s important to explain the wider impact of your organisation for the whole community, who does it benefit and why? Perhaps your facilities are used for other purposes outside of sport too?
