Story

Great Britain Deaf Football are now raising money to compete in the 2009 Deaflymics in Taiwan.  We need to raise a considerable amount of money to take the team and officials there in order to defend our World title from Melbourne 2005.  I'm running 10k in Brighton in November to try and raise money for this fantastic cause.

Why Sponsor Great Britain Deaf Football?

Great Britain Deaf Football are self-funded and do not receive any help or support from the Football Association or the Government. The Government and the FA at present will not recognise the Great Britain Deaf Football as a body. Therefore, we rely on charitable donations/sponsorships and kind donations from outside support.

All coaches, managers and physiotherapists who work with Great Britain Deaf Football are volunteers, and to date, no one has been paid for their hard work.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor Great Britain Deaf Football: We will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
