Who are we?
Terling has many facilities within it's lovely village, but it doesn't have a football team. We would like to make this happen. We have been lucky enough to secure the pitch on Fairstead Road, we have some amazing volunteers, including an FA qualified coach, all we need now are players and funds!!!
Why are we crowdfunding?
In order to get the club running and off the ground, there are so so many things we need to find funding for from footballs and training cones, to imperative safeguarding, first aid and insurance. The list really is endless.
The more funding we can raise, the better facilities we can provide to our community.
We are reaching out to all means of funding which maybe available to us, but in order to give us a start, we are appealing to our community, our friends and neighbours and to all those that will see the change this investment really will make.

How you can play your part
There are four simple ways to help us reach our target, and make this project a reality.
1. Make a pledge. Don’t delay if you’re going to support us because momentum is key to our success!
2. Spread the word. Share our project on your social media pages and tell the world to get behind us! The more people we reach, the more support we will get.
3. Offer rewards. Get involved if you are a local business by donating things we can offer to our club, We will give you a shout out!
4. If you want to run your own fundraiser to support us, maybe a sponsored activity or similar, use the 'contact project' button at the top of our page to let us know. Setting up your own page only takes a few minutes and you won’t need any bank details. Just a fun idea!
How we’ll spend the money raised
Any money we can raise will go towards all costs involved in setting up and running the club. In time, we hope to obtain support from the local FA, Corporate sponsors and local government funding to secure the sustainability of the club, but we need to start from the beginning before we may qualify for larger grants. We are pleading for any support you maybe able to give us as a local community group. No penny will be wasted and every penny really will make the difference.

Community impact
Having a Football Club in the amazing village of Terling really will enhance the community spirit and compliment the sporting facilities already on offer within the village. Not only will it give all ages, all sexes the opportunity to play football, but also be able to offer the opportunity for people to become part of the football community, part of a volunteer group, learning new skills, addressing health and well-being and become part of the football family.
We hope the club and the facilities will grow and will offer the community a place to meet, a place to enjoy in the sunshine, and a place of safety. Making this more than just a football club, but a hub of the village.
