We were invited by The FA and PayPal to take part in a video shoot as a case study for The FA’s Matchday app. Back in August we spent the afternoon filming an interview and a training session with our U9 boys group and U12 Blaze Girls to promote our use of the app within the club.

A massive thank you to all 230 kids parents who have got on board and are using the app this season to help manage player availability, pay your fees and ultimately help our coaches spend less time on admin and more time on coaching the children.

As a result of all 17 teams hitting their target of payments through the app, we managed to get over £4200 of free Nike equipment for the club. So new cones, new match balls and new bibs.

Here is the video of our club secretary Simon Hume talking about the benefits that the app has brought to the club.

As you may be aware, the club has been raising money to purchase two defibrillators for us use at our home games in the village, at Dovehouse, and just outside the village at our HRI location.

Through some incredible donations from parents, members of the community and local businesses we were gaining on our first target of £850 to purchase the first one.

We were then contacted by Shoezone, who have a Charitable Trust and wanted to donate enough money to buy a defibrillator out right. So in a little over 2 weeks of fund raising, we’ve almost raised enough money to buy both.

Thanks to Jon Fearn at Shoezone for putting our case forward.

At the time of writing we are £188 shy of our overall target. A massive achievement, so thank you once again from everyone at the club to put as in this position so quickly!

Once this round of fund raising is completed, we’ll turn our attention to hopefully purchasing a lockable box to be placed at Dovehouse, for one of the defibrillators, which means the whole community will have access to be able to use it as well.

We are pleased to announce that WWFC have selected Surridge Sport as our training & playing kit partner for the next 3 years, with the option to extend our agreement beyond that.

The agreement sees bespoke designs for Boys, Girls, Away and Goalkeeper kits that all teams will benefit from in coming seasons.  A wide range of exclusive WWFC branded training clothing, including a specific range for our growing girls’ section, will be offered via a Surridge hosted and managed webstore, with delivery direct to your door.

Surridge Sports are based in Burnley and manufacture and supply kit to professional & semi-pro teams such as Mansfield Town, Solihull Moors and Alvechurch, along with county cricket teams, universities, schools and several grassroots clubs like us.

Both the club and Surridge are committed to a partnership that works for everyone involved in the club as committee members, coaches, volunteers, parents and of course our players.  During selection, we were really pleased with the quality and price of the kit and training wear and are sure our players & parents will be delighted when it starts to arrive.

The new webstore will be available by the end of August and all teams needing playing kit for the new season will receive it in time for kick-off on the weekend of the 7^th September.

Are you interested in sponsoring one of our Wellesbourne Wanderers teams?

Every season we have new teams coming up through the ranks from U8 to U18’s, and often we need new kit, jackets and equipment for these teams.

Sponsorship Types

Some of the types of sponsorship we are always looking for:

• Team Kit Sponsorship (Business logo on front of shirt)
• Rain Jacket Sponsorship (Business logo on rear of jacket)
• Link to your business on our website, logo & write up (On our new sponsorship page coming in for the 2019/20 season)
• General Donations to the Club

If you are want to discuss potential sponsorship of the club, from a team level or for anything else, please get in touch on info@wellesbournewanderersfc.co.uk and we can share the kind of packages we have available.

Player registrations for 2018/19 are now open and we are doing it slightly differently this year.

Rather than filling out a paper form for the club, you can now do this online and pay your fees all at the same time.

If your child is going to be playing for a league registered team in Under 8’s up to Under 17’s then you will be required to pay £100 for the season. If your child is joining Minis, training for the girls or just training with an age group (and not playing league fixtures) then a reduced fee of £60 applies.

Please fill in your registration form and make sure you make payment here. If you have any questions, please contact your age group coach BEFORE registration and making payment.

Please note that the league registration form will still be required for Under 8’s to under 17’s, with the two passport photographs.
