Belnorth FC Achieves 1 Star Club Changer Status

On the 20th of September, Belnorth FC achieved 1 Star Club Changer status, demonstrating commitment and dedication to the development of Women and Girls Football. This entitles Belnorth to access resources, services and potential funding for Women and Girls.

Special thanks to Kat Newman who put in the work to make this happen. Kat has been a long time advocate and champion for Girls and Women’s Football. Thank you, Kat!

With 1 Star under our belt, we will be looking toward achieving 2 Star status. To achieve the second star, the important area of Safeguarding will be one of the priorities for the club’s development plan.

If you are interested in assisting the club to achieve 2 Star Status, we’d love to hear from you via admin@belnorth.org.

Sponsor Belnorth in 2024

With the end of the year rapidly approaching, Belnorth is holding a Pre-Festive Sponsorship Drive for the 2024 winter season.

In time for 2024 we have introduced an additional jersey design with a stripe. This winter season, our U5-U9 teams were bursting at the seams, which required some juggling of jersey colours to avoid clashes. The new striped version has 13 variations to ensure enough variations for all our teams in 2024.

With the buzz still around from the Womens World Cup, we have had bumper numbers for our Summer Comp, so we expect even bigger numbers for the 2024 winter season.

If you are interested in sponsoring a team with jersey sponsorship or know a business that might be interested check out the packages here or email sponsor@belnorth.org.
