Morning Guys,
I was at a regional Trust meeting at Port Vale last night and Altrincham have a great little initiative going, can you help them?
A Kosovan family were staying near their ground, as their child was receiving treatment at the local hospital. During their time there, the husband started to train with the team and became a popular figure around the place.
The child has now received treatment and has recovered from the illness, so the family have returned to Kosovo. On his return, the husband has started up a local children's football team, which he has called "Altrincham" and this has gathered momentum over there.
The problem is that these guys have little or nothing in the way of kit and are reliant upon donations. Alty have organised some kit to be sent over there in July and things are going well.
The club are desperate for any items of football equipment, kits, balls, flags, goals, etc etc etc, but especially kits. If anyone can assist with this, please drop a note below or send me a PM!
Cheers
SNFC

SNFC, you don't mention what age group this team are but i may be able to get a full kit in the summer as juniors side are having two new ones. I won't promise as i'm not in a position to do so but i will try my best to ensure that it goes to this cause. BTW, the kit in question would be for 12 year olds.
