We are excited that our crowdfunding scheme in collaboration with the Sport England Active Together fund is now live! It runs only until 29th May. The crowdfunding is rewards based, so you are able to choose from many rewards in exchange for your donation.

The link is below: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/norwich-city-target-club-equipment-for-expansion

All rewards will be available to view at the club and more detail and pictures can be sent to any non local supporters.

We include below a gallery of some of the rewards available so you can see the sort of items on offer. Plenty more to see on the crowdfunder site including vouchers for Amazon, John Lewis, M and S and One for All.

Thank you so much for your support.

We are delighted to announce that we have been successful in our application to Sport England’s Active Together Project. The project, if successful will allow the club to purchase further Sport Quantum targets, more junior equipment, fund several coaching courses and purchase a defibrillator for the club.

The project is a crowdfunding campaign where members, friends and family are asked to make donations in exchange for rewards. The targets and additional items will be of great use to us in expanding and growing the club.

If the project hits its target (£6500) , Sport England will contribute £1950 of this total- so the club needs to raise £4550 in donations from at least 50 different individuals. The campaign will launch on 1st May and run for just 4 weeks. We hope you will all get behind us. Look out for an email in the next couple of days containing all the details and explaining how you can help.

Thank you to everyone who helped out with the video which will support the campaign- you were all brilliant.
