Golden Eagles Football Club

Great news

Through local giving and the postcode lottery we have received another Magic Little Grant.
This is to get extra shirts or a new kit for one team.
This project has been made possible by a grant from Localgiving and Postcode
Community Trust, a grant-giving charity funded by players of People’s Postcode Lottery.
When we know who is coming back and what teams we still have, we can spend it.

If any of you or your firms wish to sponsor us please let Liz know !!

Latest from the FA as of 15th May

The FA have today issued guidance to all grassroots football and informal football activity outside the professional game.

Consistent with Government advice, published on Wednesday 13 May, the following outdoor football activity is currently permitted:

• playing football individually (individual skills or fitness activities);
• playing football with your family or other people living in your household;
• an individual can play football with one other person who is not from their household;
• coaching an adult player one-to-one.

All social distancing guidelines must be followed.

Additionally, maintaining a grass or artificial football pitch is permitted, as long as social distancing and appropriate hygiene practices are adopted.

If an individual is symptomatic, living in a household with a possible COVID-19 infection or if you are classified as extremely vulnerable on health grounds, the guidance is that you should remain at home.

The following football activity is NOT permitted at this time, consistent with Government guidelines:

• coaching a child (U18) from a different household one-to-one. In order to comply with our safeguarding policy, a child must have a parent/carer with them, which doesn’t comply with Government social distancing requirements;
• two or more people from one household playing with one person or more from outside their household.

We will continue to work with the Government and Sport England in order to provide guidance to grassroots football as the Government’s COVID-19 recovery strategy moves to the next phase.

We are going with the decision from the FA to suspend all football until further notice. Keep well and fit !!
