SPONSORS are needed to help support a youth football club.

Poppleton Junior football club will hold their annual beer festival on the weekend of June 15 and 16 to help raise money for the club.

Paul Bunce, chairman of the team, said: "All money raised goes back into the running of the Junior football club and this year’s aim is to raise enough money to purchase some new portable goals

"The festival is a very popular event which is now in its eighth year and is a great day for all the family. This year we will have 62 different beers, plenty of food on offer and live music, we will even have a giant inflatable for the kids as well as football pitches set up for them to have a kick around."

The club said it is looking for local companies to help sponsor the event, with various options available.

Mr Bunce said: "We have many different types of sponsorship on offer including the chance to sponsor a beer barrel for just £110 for which in return we will give them two free entries, two free pie and peas and 50 beer tokens."
