Community Football Goal Post Fund


The aim of the CFGPfund is to raise enough money between the players of community football so that 2 x 12ft by 6ft goal posts can be purchased. It would cause alot of stress relief as whether or not there was a goal scored or not will be resolved through whether or not the ball is in the back of the net or not. Also when goals are scored through 'power blasters' people will not have to run long distances to get the ball therefore saving more time for actual game playing.

An example of the one that we are trying to raise enough cash for are the 12ft by 6ft goal posts and the image below shows us what it looks like. The posts can be re-sized to different widths and heights to fit our needs.


David Seaman not included.

The people who have already expressed that they WILL put money into the CFGPfund so far include:

  • Rob (£20)
  • Lawrence (£20)
  • Ryan (£20)
  • Alan (£20)
  • Danny G (£20)
  • Jack (£20)
  • Creggors (£20 + £30 (what a man))
  • Randy (£20)

    current total: £190.00

    Many more of the community footballers are expected to sign up soon. If you want to sign up and see your name on this list mail me here.

    Prices
    So onto prices of the goals (baring in mind we would like to get 2 of these), the best place that has been found for the goals is The Soccer Site.co.uk where each of the 12ft by 6ft goals cost £99.00 inc. delivery so our total costs would be £198.00 inc. delivery. This is a very good cost for 2 uPVC goal sets.

    How will we pay between us?

    We are aiming for at least 10 of the community football players to put money into the fund.

    With 10 people putting money into the fund,
    each person will have to pay: £19.80

    Therefore the more people who decide to put money into the fund, the less each person will have to pay, eg:
    if 11 people, each pay: £18.00
    if 12 people, each pay: £16.50...
    ...if 15 people, each pay: £13.20 and so on.
