What's your top finance tip for other Walking Football Clubs?

Finance is never the most exciting side of sport but is of course very important. Meeting your costs isn't always straight forward, especially in this current financial climate, what are some ways that your club has been innovative in managing and maximising your finances?

  • Charlbury Town a relatively small walking football club and therefore has limited opportunity to raise funds. Our normal session fees are paid direct to the venue provider.

    However, we did agree amongst ourselves that anyone that wished to play in any league or friendly matches for the club paid an annual levy of £5 to help towards kit and other incidental costs (along with any actual match fees payable).

    Additionally, we were lucky enough to have one of our players who was prepared to sponsor our new kit - and at the same time found Core-37 who provide kit at extremely good prices.

  • Thanks for sharing John. Great to have that recommendation on a good value kit provider.

  • Core-37 were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. They are based in Newcastle and the kit is produced here in the UK, so another bonus!

    At no extra cost what so ever, they were more than happy to produce endless mock-ups of my ever-changing design ideas, the quoted price included all the club badges, sponsors logos and team numbers - and when the kit arrived there wasn't the slightest quibble about replacing two of the goalkeepers tops which were slightly faulty!
