Club sponsors and supporters

Our renovation work would not be possible without our sponsors and supporters. The Club’s members have already done a lot to improve our facilities, and we are grateful to those members and friends who have put in so much time already. But we also want to recognise those from the wider community who understand the value of what the Club is seeking to achieve, and who have so generously contributed to our fundraising efforts, through their kind donations.

The Club looks forward to more offers of assistance – feel free to contact our Chairman, Steve Clemens, chairman@cardinhamsports.org, if you would like to contribute to our fundraising efforts. In the meantime, we are pleased to offer our sincere thanks to the following, listed below – in what we hope will be a growing list of supporters:
