Shoreham FC are in for a major revamp after scoring the top prizes in the Buildbase £100k Transfer Deal 2020.

Each season the national competition gives away £100,000 worth of building materials to improve the facilities of four clubs playing in the Buildbase FA Trophy or Buildbase FA Vase.

Shoreham are the latest winners to walk away with a £25,000 product bursary having successfully pitched their projects against four other finalists.

The cub will use the building materials to improve facilities to attract more youth and girls teams. Volunteers will undertake the work.

Co-chairman of Shoreham, Stuart Slaney, explained: “Schemes like the Buildbase programme are vital for grassroots football as they offer the opportunity to improve facilities and upkeep that is usually done by donations. We will repair our main changing rooms and those used by our girls’ teams to give them a dedicated area as well as renovate our West stand.

“It means so much to win, we can bring more girls into the club and increase activities for youngsters around the area and parents will be able to sit behind the goal and watch their kids play again, no matter what the weather.”Judges from Buildbase and The FA praised Shoreham for their focus on encouraging more girls into the game.

The £25,000 product bursary includes building, electrical and hire products, which will be provided by local Buildbase branches working with the clubs.
