Fundraising inspiration
We know how difficult it can be to get that first fundraising idea, but if you already play or even just have an interest in football, there are a ton of ways for you to get your friends and family involved in raising money and awareness, and even get some exercise in to boot! Some ideas to consider:
- Hold a 5 a side tournament - charge an entry fee and ask for additional donations on the day. See below for our top tips.
- Football marathon - how many games can you get played in 24 hours?
- Walking football - do you play, or know someone that does? Dedicate a match to Prostate Cancer UK and raise both awareness and funds in an ever-relevant community.
- Crossbar challenge - see if your local club will promote a crossbar challenge at half time, and ask for donations to enter.
- Match day collection - will your local club (big or small) hold a collection at a match day of their choosing?
- Hold a raffle, auction or arrange a 'money can't buy' experience - can you speak to your local club to see if they can auction a shirt or provide hospitality as a prize?
- Walk/run/cycle between clubs - why not get the community involved and run between rival clubs? Des Oldham's Nottingham to Derby run did just that.
- Something else? There are all sorts of ways you can use football to raise funds and awareness, from visiting every ground in the UK, to getting included in a match day programme, find out what works for you and join the fight against prostate cancer.
