Solihull Moors U9s in their new kit

Submitted by Matilda Gillings

Members of a  local football team have been given a confidence boost after getting a new sponsor for their kit.

The team have received new training jumpers as a result of the sponsorship, which came from a source close to their coach.

Two seasons later, he is still enjoying coaching the team his son is part of.

The team were able to have training jumpers to keep them warm in winter months following sponsorship by Karl's mum.

After the jumper donation, Richard Dooner, CEO at Antser, a leading health and social care technology provider, provided the team with a full set of training tops.

It has given the team a boost in confidence which is visible to the volunteers and spectators.

Karl said: "The children look fantastic, and it gives us a real sense of togetherness and community.

"Prospective children and their parents really pay attention to us now, and people comment on how smart everyone looks.

"It gives us a real community-feel to be proud of, and we know that not everyone is lucky enough to have that."
