Fuel Our Girls National League Journey U19 U16 U14

Aim

Every donation helps our U14, U16 and U19 girls reach National League matches and compete without financial barriers.

Who are we?

Team Northants Handball is a not-for-profit, volunteer-run community sports club dedicated to growing girls and women's handball across Northamptonshire.

We believe every girl deserves the opportunity to play sport, develop confidence and be part of a supportive team, regardless of her background or financial circumstances. Through qualified coaching and a positive, inclusive environment, we help players develop not only their handball skills but also important life skills such as teamwork, resilience and leadership.

Although we are a young club, we have already made a significant impact. In our first season, we qualified for the U14 National Finals, where we finished 5th in England, our U16 team finished 3rd in the South Regional League, and we were honored to be shortlisted as finalists for the England Handball Club of the Year Award before celebrating our first anniversary.

Everything we do is made possible by the dedication of our players, volunteers, coaches, parents and supporters. As a not-for-profit club, every pound we receive is reinvested into providing opportunities for our players.

Our vision is to make Team Northants Handball the home of girls and women's handball in Northamptonshire, giving every player the chance to learn, compete and achieve their full potential.

Building Players. Inspiring People. Growing Handball. 🖤🧡🤾

How we’ll spend the money raised

It’s important to be transparent about how you plan to spend the money you raise. Your audience will be more likely to make a pledge if they can see how their donation will help. Be specific and add a budget breakdown.

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?
