Football Foundation and FSIF to support club facilities damaged by storm

#PressRelease
  • Clubs who have suffered damage from either Storm Dudley, Eunice and/or Franklin can apply for funding towards emergency works
  • Applications from eligible National League System and Women's Pyramid Clubs will be considered on a case by case basis 
  • Grants of up to £10,000 available for emergency repairs, clean up and replacement of facilities damaged through storm 
  • Grants of up to £25,000 may be awarded in exceptional circumstances

We’ve seen across social media over the last few days the damage that has been caused to football facilities by Storm Dudley and Eunice, as well as Storm Franklin which has been working its way across the country.
 
As with Storm Arwen last month, and the damage caused by Storm Ciara in 2020, the Football Foundation and the Football Stadia Improvement Fund will look to work with clubs to see if we can support them to get their facilities back open to the community in the coming weeks.
 
Whilst we won’t be able to help with every missing roof tile or each waterlogged pitch, we have in the past been able to support clubs that have suffered from flooding, had fencing blown down or where they have suffered significant structural damage to their site.
 
If you've spoken to your insurers and an insurance claim is not possible, please click the 'apply now' button below and send us an email detailing the damage to your facility (please include photos of the damage too). One of our team will then get in touch to discuss if and how we can help.
