A Ratho United 2018s football team for boys and girls can now be established thanks to a donation of £1,000 from house builder Taylor Wimpey East Scotland.
Head Coach Martin Hay said: “It was our ambition to establish a Ratho United team for children aged six and we are thrilled to have received this substantial support from Taylor Wimpey which has helped us to establish the team.
We are so grateful for their support for initiatives like ours in the local community.
“Their donation has allowed us to provide training strips for every player, as well as buy essential training equipment which ensures our twice-weekly training sessions are fun, healthy and safe for everyone taking part.”
Kirsty McGill, Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey East Scotland said: “We are proud to be continuing our support for grassroots football in the local communities where we build, and we were delighted to be able to help Ratho United to establish a new team for children aged six to get involved in sport. It’s great to see the children having such a fun time learning their sport
“This sponsorship allows us to play our part in continuing our support in the local community, and it also allows us to underpin our commitment to creating a fantastic range of family homes at our Lauder Grove development in Ratho Station.”
