Local football club Ruddington Colts are celebrating thanks to the Co-op’s local community fund and Ruddington Parish Council.
Ruddington Colts F.C are based in Ruddington, and have over 20 teams ranging from U7’s to a men’s senior side. They also run a soccer school for younger children on Saturday and Sunday mornings.
The club had been selected as part of the Co-op’s Local Community Fund and thank you to local peoples support and generosity, have received over £3,300.
Currently, managers and parents helpers have to put up and take down the junior goals each time they play. This new funding will be put towards two sets of junior roll on, roll off goals which will cost the club over £5,300.
Additional money has also been donated to the club from Ruddington Parish Council, allowing the club to purchase new respect barriers for all five of their junior pitches.
