BARCLAYS KIT BOOST FOR LOCAL GRIDIRON COACHES

Barclays has backed a local American Football club for the coming season by donating a complete set of coaching kit and equipment to the Fife Fire. The award to the club has been made as part of the £30m grassroots sports programme, Barclays Spaces for Sports.

The donation is one of only 1200 packs being awarded each year to ensure sports clubs across the UK will benefit from the 3 year scheme.

Mark Bramwell, Fife Fire Headcoach commented ”This coaching kit is a very welcome addition to our club, and we are delighted to have attracted the backing of a major organisation such as Barclays. It shows their commitment to developing grassroots sports and also the level of interest the Fire are gaining from our hard work”

Michelle Smith, Barclays Sponsorship Director said “Barclays are delighted to be supporting the Fife Fire and hope this coaching kit will encourage their interest in sport and lead them to greater success!”

Barclays Spaces for Sports, a partnership between Barclays, Football Foundation and Groundwork, will create sustainable sports sites and provide coaching kit and equipment to communities in most need of help across the UK.
