Newport County AFC

Newport County AFC relies on the continued support of its Supporters to raise vital funds. We are asking for your help. The club needs to purchase a set of portable floodlights for Peter Beadle's training sessions for the squad. The club has found it Difficult to book suitable floodlight real grass training facilities (such facilities are in short supply locally) and this is a novel solution to the problem. We have the floodlights on order and their cost is £3500. This is an unexpected item of expense and the Board needs the help of its supporters to raise the funds to purchase the equipment. This is an urgent appeal as we need to take delivery of the lights as soon as possible to help the squad prepare for forthcoming matches. In the long run this will save the club money as it means that we will not have to hire training facilities (such as Cardiff University ) as part of next season's training plan and budget. We could save £2800 or more per season and can arrange training sessions at or near to the Stadium complex for the convenience of the squad. The club is appealing for supporters to contribute to this fund in units of £25. We need to sell 140 units. The club has a tight budget, and whereas the Board have accepted its responsibilities for trying to balance the annual operating budget, it needs your support to raise funds for this new equipment.
