WFA COUNTY SQUADS
We are looking for sponsors for our Bristol and Gloucestershire team for match shirts !
We have a top ready to be printed for our next meeting but are desperate for funding to help the women out!

If there is anyone out there that would like to sponsor the next regional tournament, which includes hiring the facilities , refs & trophies please make contact with the page 🤩

Devon County squads are looking for funding for 4 training sessions next year.
 this will include preparation for the next 2 tournament and our trials for the squad in Sep 2024.

What we can offer you is lots of exposure on social media as the county squads are the first ever for Womens Walking Football !

Southwest is leading the way !

Please help support the women if you can in this rapidly growing sport, giving them the opportunity to step onto platforms and shine ⭐️

All enquiries welcome , no matter how big or small the donations , everything helps towards the sport!

We thank our current sponsors of Devon & Somerset !
