Who are we?
Oundle Town Football Club U6s.
Why are we crowdfunding?
To raise funds to purchase new training equipment for the group.
The football club itself does support with purchasing basic equipment for the group, however, we have ambitions to invest in some high quality training equipment that would otherwise be unaffordable for the group without any external funding.
We also think that it will be a positive learning experience for the group to participate in an event like this, where they will get the chance to see the direct outcome of what sponsorship can achieve.
Finally, holding an event like this will be a nice team building activity away from the football pitch!
What are we doing and when?
We will he holding a sponsored walk around Barnwell Country Park on Saturday 31st May 2025, commencing at 10:30am. The walk will be approx 2-3km and should take 1-1.5hrs to complete.
Every player who attends the event will receive a goody bag and there will be a special prize for the player who manages to generate the most sponsorship money.
How we’ll spend the money raised
The primary objective of this event is to raise money to purchase at least 4no 'Bazooka Goals'. Bazooka Goals is the market leader for mini-goals, supplying high quality, personalised goals to a number of the leading football clubs around the world. See below link and images.
Having these mini-goals will enable the coaches to focus more on mini matches during training sessions, hosting more 2v2, 3v3 and 4v4 matches in line with new FA guidance. Mini-matches mean more touches and more decision making for players which is proven to accelerate player development.
Any surplus funds will go into the pot for future equipment and/or teamwear for the group.
When the group formally splits into 'teams', the goals will be divided amongst the teams.
