Betfair Supporting Sports At Grassroots Level


The Cash 4 Clubs grants scheme is all about helping your local sports club, whether your goal posts need replacing or your junior girls rugby team needs new kit. This scheme is handing out cash from £250 to £1,000 so well worth a look at their website at http://www.cash-4-clubs.com/ if you want to apply.

The scheme is being funded by Betfair and supported by SportsAid, the charity responsible for helping our talented young athletes grow into future champions and Olympic winners.

The new launch has also been supported by Mark Foster, a SportsAid alumni, Olympic Swimmer and World Record Holder: "Community sports clubs are the grassroots of sport. It was at my local club in Southend that I started swimming and developed into a professional and without the support of this community based club I would never have represented my country at the top level of the sport. Clubs need funds and that is why Cash 4 Clubs is such a fantastic scheme as it gets money straight to where it can have the most impact."
