This year will see the first ever U21 European Deaf Football Championships being held in Poland in August. Great Britain will be sending a team to compete in the tournament but to do this we need to raise much needed funds.

Great Britain Deaf Football is a voluntary organisation and all of the staff and players involved are self funding. We have an overall target of £25,000 to raise before the tournament in August so to help us reach this target each player and staff member will be challenged to raise £1,000. This money will go towards the cost of flights, accommodation, travel, facilities, kits etc.

I was appointed as Scout and Assistant Manager for the GB Deaf Football U23 Development Squad last year. I work closely with the Manager, players and other backroom staff and I am responsible for identifying new talent to bring into the squad. I will be travelling to Poland with the U21 team this August and I would really appreciate your support in reaching my £1,000 target.

Any donation you could offer, no matter how large or small, would be much appreciated.

Many thanks for your support.
