What is the scheme?

The junior kit scheme provides money for junior kit and equipment to under 18 teams and adults with disabilities.

Can you apply?

 Any club, school or organisation can apply for a kit grant including all representative teams at a junior level up to and including District. Applications are also welcome from disabled groups of all ages.

To be eligible for funding groups must:

• Be within the qualifying age group: Under 7s – Under 18s (with the exception of adults with disabilities).

• Not have previously received a kit grant from the Football Foundation’s Junior Kit Scheme within a three-year period. This is with the exception of clubs, as long as one application is for a girls’ team and the other one is for a boys’ team. A separately affiliated section within a club, which has its own officials and structure, would be considered independently. Please note, schools may not apply for a second kit within a three-year period.

• Either have achieved FA Charter Standard, or agree to work towards this standard within a period of 12 months. For further advice please contact your local County FA. 

• Include a copy of their Child Protection Policy.

• Have a minimum of ten registered members.

• Teams should not be of mixed gender for age groups 11yrs and over, in accordance with FA ruling.
