FELPHAM Colts Football Club in Bognor Regis has received a boost from local herb producer Vitacress which has sponsored the Under 10s new kit.
The squad of nine will be sporting a new yellow and blue strip with the Vitacress logo on the front, and the players also have matching tracksuits and rain coats.
Felpham Colts is one of the largest youth football clubs in West Sussex and Vitacress is the country’s largest producer of fresh herbs for UK supermarkets.
As part of the new sponsorship, Felpham Colts will be doing a collection on behalf of Vitacress for Chestnut Tree Children’s Hospice near Arundel, a charity which Vitacress supports.
Vitacress will be matching any funds raised.
Simon Conway, managing director of Vitacress’ herb business in Runcton, Chichester, said: “As a herb and salad producer, encouraging initiatives which promote healthy eating and being active is important to us.
“Felpham Colts offers a huge number of children a great opportunity to have fun and keep active playing football and we’re delighted to be able to support them.”
Nick Scott, Under 10s manager, said: “We’re passionate about giving young people a chance to enjoy the benefits of playing football. Our players take real pride in wearing their team kit.”
