Foundation of Light introduces transformational place-based football academy at Consett AFC
The pioneering academy, based at the football club’s Belle View Stadium, aims to remove long-standing barriers to education and high-performance coaching.
Sunderland AFC’s Cashback Scheme returns when the Black Cats host QPR at the Stadium of Light on Foundation of Light Day.
The Lads side take on Queens Park Rangers on Saturday 16 March (KO 3pm) and supporters can take advantage of a special ticket offer, while fundraising for the Foundation.
SAFC’s Cashback Scheme offers local schools and sports clubs across the region access to affordable matchday tickets for supporters and cashback from the tickets goes to both the Foundation and schools and sports clubs involved.
Supporters can purchase two tickets for £20 (£10 each) for the QPR game via their local school or sports club. Following the match, £5 from every pair of tickets purchased will be donated to the school or sports club as financial support.
If your school or sports club are interested in joining the SAFC Cashback Scheme, please email cashback@safc.com for further details.
Sports clubs and schools are advised that there will be a limited number of tickets available through the cashback scheme, so please register your interest as early as possible.
