Lichfield housebuilder supports U10s football team with kit donation

Redrow Midlands, currently building at Curborough Lakes on Watery Lane, is supporting a local grassroots football team by sponsoring the under 10s team at Chasetown Youth FC, with a £250 donation for the team's match day kits.

The club is run by volunteers and supports children in Lichfield, aged eight to sixteen, encouraging them to be active and enjoy a team building sport in a safe community environment.

The donation is part of Redrow’s commitment to support the local community and enable groups and organisations in the area to thrive. 

Commenting on the donation, Wim Gysegom, the U10s Coach at Chasetown FC said: “The team was delighted to be able to play in the new kit and represent Chasetown Junior FC in the new colours!” 

Elaine Cartwright, Sales Director at Redrow Midlands, said: "Local football clubs developing home-grown talent play an integral part of community life, so we are proud to offer our support to the under 10s team at Chasetown Youth FC as part of our commitment to creating thriving communities.

“Playing sport is a great way to improve physical and mental wellbeing, while bringing people together through a love of the game. What’s more, grassroots football is more than just a sport, it’s a space where young children are offered a fun and safe learning environment where they are empowered to develop key life skills, from teambuilding to communicating effectively – skills that will stand them in good stead throughout their lives.

“We are committed to positively impacting the area surrounding Curborough Lakes for people of all ages, and the community groups that help make Lichfield a great place to live. We look forward to seeing the team in action soon – go Chasetown U10s!”

The sponsorship forms part of Redrow’s ongoing commitment to promote health and wellbeing in the community.
