YOUNG PLAYERS SCORE BRAND NEW KIT THANKS TO ELAN HOMES

INSPIRED by their World Cup heroes youngsters from Castle Cary FC’s under-12s team are playing with style after receiving brand new kit sponsored by Clevedon-based developer Elan.

Elan – which has just launched sales of new three and four-bedroom homes at Weavers Field in Station Road, Castle Cary – was keen to support the local club based at Donald Pither Memorial Ground.

The under-12 team, which plays in , will look the part as they pass, shoot and score after benefitting from a red and black strip, along with a bright green goalkeepers’ kit, made by Yeovil-based Yellowbox Solutions.

Catherine Marshall, sales director for Elan Homes in the South, said: “Since launching our Weavers Field development in Castle Cary we’ve been struck by the incredibly positive impact Castle Cary FC has in the community, providing opportunities for people of all ages to get fit, have fun and compete.

“We’re proud to be supporting grassroots football by sponsoring Castle Cary FC’s under-12 squad and we wish them all the very best for the new season ahead.”

Steve Wilton, Castle Cary FC Vice-Chairman, added: “We’re delighted with the new kit, which looks great and has been well received by our players, and we’d like to thank Elan for generously sponsoring us for the new season.”

In addition to the sponsorship, Elan has committed to funding a package of community investments in the local area totalling around £130,000 – including funding for a community hall, changing rooms, an equipped play area and a range of other local leisure facilities.

Boasting an exclusive collection of homes in a wide range of designs, Weavers Field has been developed on three acres of land that was formerly Wells Farm. The 37 high-quality three and four-bedroom homes are being built to suit busy family lives, sited within an inspiring environment with plenty of open space.
