Sponsorship Opportunities

Since reforming in the 2015/16 season Sedgley and Gornal United FC Women (Formerly Gornal Ladies FC) have enjoyed considerably success on the field. Beginning at the bottom of the womens football pyramid they gained promotion in their first season to the BCWL Premier league by finishing a creditable second.

In their second season the team again managed to gain promotion to the West Midlands Regional League. They also managed to reach the semi final of the Birmingham County cup finally being beaten 3-0 by WBA Women who went on to lift the trophy for the second year in a row. The team was also the only County team in that season to reach the final qualifying round of the SSE Womens FA Cup before being knocked out by Premier League opponents Radcliffe Olympic.

In 2017/18 they narrowly missed a third successive promotion by one point and achieved a third place finish in 2018/19.In 2019/20 the club were in the unenviable position of needing to completely rebuild following circumstances beyond its control. Following the voiding of the 2019-20 season the club retained its place in the Regional league and will be aiming to strengthen attracting new players of the right quality and looking to once more challenge for promotion as well as participating in the Womens FA Cup and County Cups.

In total it costs just over £6500 per season to be able to run the Ladies team, not including kits, and as the team is run entirely by volunteers it relies upon the generosity of local businesses to help fund the pitch fees, winter training costs, referees fees as well as affiliation, registration and entry fees for the leagues and cup competitions.

All funds received would help reduce the burden on the players to fund the above costs and provide the opportunity for a number of players who may not otherwise be able to afford to enjoy the sport at this level.

There are a number of opportunities for you, as an individual or local business to help out the team whilst generating exposure for your business and be a part of our ongoing success story.

Womens football is at the start of an upward journey with WSL players on a professional basis. Tthis will inevitably filter down the leagues and we at Sedgley and Gornal would like to be at the forefront of this.

All sponsorship (except an individual player sponsorship) can be paid via monthly installments.
