First aid trainers sponsor new sign for young footballers

WESTBURY Youth FC has a brand new sign at the entrance to its ground thanks to sponsorship from local business EFA Training.

The club, which trains around 300 young players, has installed the new bigger, better sign in a bid to tidy up the entrance to the ground on Redland Lane.

The sign was paid for by  first aid training company, EFA Training, based in Newtown in Westbury.

Local resident and owner of the company, Nigel Inseal said, “I was happy to sponsor this for the club – it’s an important part of the community and it’s healthy for kids to be outside playing sport.

“My granddaughter plays at the club, too, so it’s an investment I was happy to make! Hopefully it will improve the club’s first impression and encourage more parents to get their children to take part.”

Chairman of the youth club, Greg Coulson said, “We’re very grateful to Nigel and EFA Training for the sponsorship. The old sign was tatty and we needed a clear up of the whole entrance.

“It seems like a small thing but it’s a big deal for the club and does wonders for our image.

“The financial support is obviously very important but we’d also like to be more of a community club so it’s great to have a local business on board.”
