Tigers Co-operative grassroots football grants still available

Last season Tigers Co-operative kindly donated £6,000 to support grassroots youth football teams
across Hull & East Riding. Grants of up to £100 are still available to youth teams and at the request of
Tigers Co-operative this is specifically to support teams who are in need of financial assistance or
who have players in need of additional financial assistance. The scheme is open to teams who play in
either the Hull & District Youth League or the East Riding Girls League and will be administered by
the two leagues alongside the East Riding County FA on behalf of The Tigers Co-operative.

In line with the requirements of Tigers Co-operative to qualify to make an application a team must:
 Play in the Hull & District Youth League or East Riding Girls League
 Be able to demonstrate a financial need (team accounts must be provided showing income

The application should specify the details of what the money will be spent on. The team may be
asked to provide receipts as proof of purchase were appropriate. Examples of eligible items may
include:

 Contribution to general running costs of teams suffering financially.
 Contribution to start up costs for a new team

Other items will be considered and all applications will be judged on their merits.
