Local companies and businesses are invited to sponsor Bedfordshire Police’s charity KickOff@3 football tournament. It is part of a national initiative organised by police forces across the country in a bid to engage with young people they wouldn’t normally reach.
The Bedfordshire tournament will take place on Sunday 28 April at AFC Kempston Rovers. It is encouraging boys and girls aged between 13 and 16 to enter a seven-a-side team, with the aim of representing the county at the national final in London later in the year.
Part of the team’s entry fee will be donated to the charity Embrace. The charity works with child victims of crime and the rest will go towards the national KickOff@3 initiative.
“The aim of this tournament is to build and strengthen the relationships we currently have with our community partners and so we are looking for community groups, businesses or charities to support and sponsor the event.
“The level of sponsorship we are looking for is a £150 donation, and in return we will feature your company’s logo across all of the advertising and promotion for the event and you will be named as a working partner. Our flyers will be circulated amongst all Bedfordshire FA teams, as well as all schools across the county.
If you are interested in finding out more about the tournament, please see the KickOff@3 national website.
