Utilita Football Rebooted – Grassroots Fund

The Grassroots Fund, launched in partnership with the Utilita Football Rebooted movement, provides no-nonsense support for grassroots football. Open to clubs, leagues, and volunteers, the fund offers quick, easy-to-access help for projects and emergencies or to recognise dedicated individuals. Applications are simple, with decisions made swiftly. In return, recipients agree to share their stories to inspire others. All funding is discretionary and multiple grants or gifts may be awarded.

Applications must come from an FA-accredited club or league and be connected to individuals or projects involved in grassroots football. Cash funding must be paid into a bank account registered to a club or league.

Support is tailored to the needs and aims of each application. It can be for anything to improve football and the lives of people who make grassroots football happen. It can be anything, but examples might include:

  • Vouchers for materials to fix up the clubhouse
  • Money to help pay for tradespeople to make improvements to your clubhouse
  • Gifts to show appreciation to volunteers
  • Support to recover from crime or vandalism
  • Funding to help make your facility safe
  • Help to improve your game and playing environment

The fund is designed to offer help quickly for clubs and individuals who need it. They aim to respond to all applications within 60 days with a decision.
