👕 In football, pulling on your club's shirt is about more than getting ready for a match.

It’s a way of showing who you represent, the community you belong to and the people you share the game with.

From the colours on the shirt to the badge on the chest, club kit can become an important part of a team’s identity – creating a sense of belonging that can last well beyond the final whistle.

That’s why getting the right kit matters.

Kitlocker's Customise Your Kit platform can help clubs bring their identity to life, with personalised match kits, training wear and merchandise.

A simple check could make a big difference. ❤️

As an affiliated Lincolnshire FA referee aged 19, Alex meets the criteria for our new free cardiac screening pilot with Lincoln Private Hospital of being an affiliated Lincolnshire FA player or referee aged 18–35, and recently took part in his ECG.

An ECG is a simple, safe and painless test that checks the electrical activity of your heart. It only takes a short time and can help identify potential issues that may otherwise go unnoticed.

We have 100 free screening places available over the next 12 months for eligible players and referees aged 18–35.

If you meet the criteria, why not take the opportunity to get checked?

👑⚽ More opportunities for women and girls to get involved in football.

Brilliant to see Broughton Ravers JFC expanding their provision with the launch of Monday Queens, a new women’s football session for anyone aged 18+.

Whether you're completely new to football or returning to the game, the sessions provide a welcoming and accessible way to get active, meet new people and enjoy football. 💛

👏 And this is exactly the kind of provision we want to see more of across Lincolnshire.

Could your club introduce a female team or session? Starting with just one female team can be the first step towards achieving 1★, 2★ or 3★ England Football Accreditation and creating more opportunities for women and girls within your club.

A huge well done to everyone at Broughton Ravers for taking that step. 🙌

👉 Find out how your club can develop its female provision by emailing [email protected] today
