Feckenham Juniors Under 11s, who play in the Central Warwickshire Youth League, are now sponsored by CrossCountry trains - one the UK's most extensive rail franchises. Feckenham's revamped blue and yellow strip now features the CrossCountry logo and website address on the front and rear of the boy's shirts.
Feckenham Juniors Co-Manager Matt Clifford, said; "Grass roots football needs as much financial support as it can get so it's great that CrossCountry has decided to sponsor us and pay for the boy's new kit. We hope we can do them proud and we've already started the season with a few impressive victories. We'd like to thank CrossCountry once again for their support. It means a lot to everyone at the club - especially the lads."
Stuart Henry, CrossCountry's External Relations Manager added: "We're delighted to be linking up with Feckenham Juniors. The club does a tremendous amount of work to get kids involved in football so via our community relations programme we felt it was a perfect match. We wish the boys all the best for the rest of the season and fingers crossed it ends in some silverware."
