Pagham Youth FC Sponsored Walk - Sunday 23rd June

Aim: All age groups walking from Littlehampton to Bognor Regis, To raise money for essential training equipment and also support local charities.

Who are we?

Pagham Football Club Youth Development has been recently set up to follow on from the current men’s team. This is the first youth development set up in Pagham’s long history.

Our club will be made up of various boys and girls teams, from the ages of five to eighteen.

Why are we crowdfunding?

Our first youth club charity event will be a sponsored walk from Littlehampton Seafront to Bognor West Park. This will be completed by the children and their families across all age groups.

As a new club we have a lot of overheads to start with such as balls, goals, training equipment, kits, pitch fees to name a few. For this reason we are looking to do a charity event which would help us with all these needs as well as supporting two local charities. 

How we’ll spend the money raised

We will be donating 20% percent of all funds raised to St Wilfrids Hospice. As well as asking for food donations that can be delivered to our local food banks.

Community impact

It is essential to us to be not only a football club, we want to ensure we make a positive impact in all areas our local community. Our ethos is that our football club is not only the sport, it is to support our children to become the best all round person they can be in the future. We will do this by giving them a safe environment to express themselves, where they will not only improve their fitness they will learn important life skills. As part of this we will be running various charity events to help support our local communities.
