Carcroft Football Team has received a significant boost to their 2025/26 season thanks to a new sponsorship partnership with CWE and William Cook Rail.
The partnership sees both companies’ branding proudly displayed on the team’s new kits, symbolising their commitment to supporting grassroots sport and investing in the local community. More importantly, the sponsorship provides the team with much-needed resources — from updated equipment and training gear to support for travel and matchday logistics — enabling the players to focus on their development both on and off the pitch.
“We’re proud to support a local team,” said Dave Bates, Managing Director at CWE. “At CWE, community engagement is a core value. We believe sport has the power to build teamwork, discipline, and resilience. This partnership goes beyond supplying football kits — it’s about giving these young athletes the opportunity to grow, thrive, and develop valuable life skills.”
The collaboration has been met with enthusiasm by the club’s coaches and players, who see it as a game-changing moment for the team’s ambitions. With increased support, Carcroft FC is better positioned to compete, train, and nurture the next generation of local football talent.
