We are delighted to say that we have had 8 applications to the scheme already and are working hard to support these clubs with guidance, funding bid writing support and the provision of a start-up bid including equipment and free club membership for a club’s initial set-up year.

To celebrate the launch of our club, we are giving away 3 sets of 12 size 1 dodgeballs to those that applied. The winners were as follows:

Derby Dodgeball: Derby Dodgeball applied for the award to help ensure their club is sustainable at under 11’s level. They have entered both regional junior leagues this season and are showing great development.

The support you have given will benefit all the children that are involved at our club and with new players coming into the club.
