OUR PLAYING AND TRAINING KIT POLICY

The following information explains Sherwood Football Club’s (SFC) policy and procedures relating to playing and training equipment, including strips.
General Principles
- New/recycled equipment and strips will be provided by the SFC to new U7 teams only (see below).
- New sets of balls will be provided where teams move up a size e.g. U10 (size 3) to U11 (size 4). Replacements due to losses and damage are to be funded by the teams.
- Teams are expected to return outgrown or unused kits and equipment for recycling to the SFC Equipment Manager.
- Teams are expected to secure their own funding for new equipment and strips via sponsorship or the like where possible (See note below).
- It is the intention to recycle equipment when possible. A stock of recycled strips and equipment is held by the SFC Equipment Manager. A list will be circulated to SFC Managers of available equipment on an ad hoc basis. Where the kit is no longer useable or there has been no requirement over an extended period, the SFC Committee may agree to donate to a good cause or sell to support club funds.
