An Open Letter from the Chair to Staff, Players, Parents & Supporters of WBAFC

As you may be aware the Club has for the past few years been heavily engaged in the process of trying to fund the new 3G artificial grass facility, similar to the one pictured above, up at the football ground. This will be a fantastic facility not only for WBAFC but also for the community in general giving us all the opportunity to play on the best playing surface in the area.

We are now so close to achieving the necessary funding; we think we have £150,000 pledged from various sources but need an extra £5000 to start the project; if we don’t get that in the current financial year, before April, then the project will not go ahead ever and that would be a great shame for want of such a small proportion of the overall cost.

You all know how much time and effort is spent voluntarily on behalf of the Club which now has to generate about £20,000 a year just to operate! I and the Committee therefore respectfully request that anyone associated with WBAFC in whatever capacity please donate £25 to the cause or less if that isn’t possible (or more if that is possible :>). We make this request as a last resort because time is so short and although we continue to raise money we suspect normal methods of fundraising will not make up the shortfall in time. Obviously this is a voluntary donation and we realise that times are hard and not everyone will be able to respond and we fully understand that.

Should you wish to donate then please do so by via cheque made out to ‘Whaley Bridge Football Club’ and give it to any WBAFC Committee Member or Team Manager as soon as you can please.

Regards & thankyou

Steve Rampley (Chair)
