NSBRC - Proud Sponsors of FC Abbey Meads U15s

We are committed to support our local community and as part of this we are delighted to sponsor the kit of local Under 15s football side, FC Abbey Meads, based in Swindon. The team will play in the North Wiltshire League, Division 1, in the 2025-26 season and have high hopes for success.

The team were presented with their new kits during a Parents & Players evening, held at the NSBRC, when their two dedicated volunteer coaches set our their plans and expectations of the boys for coming season.

The group have a strong bond and we were really impressed by their attitude and the respect they displayed for the Centre and their coaching team.

The new kit has already proven popular! Some of the team wore it for the very first time at a six aside tournament at Castle Combe, in the Cotswolds, and tasted immediate victory – winning the tournament with a 4-1 win in the final!

We are proud to support grassroots football and look forward to hearing many stores of success and personal triumphs in the season ahead. Good luck boys!

So, here are my five top tips for getting yourself organised before the work begins.
