Story
Dear Football Fans!
The future of Ukrainian football club CSCA Kyiv is under threat and we need to do something about it!
Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine on 24th February, the sporting infrastructure of Ukraine has been badly damaged both physically and financially and one of those under threat is the Central Army Sports Club, which is the football club of the Ukrainian Army.
CSCA Kyiv is a proud institution which not only provides football for the local community, but does a lot of work with veterans' organisations and others. It is a community asset which is worth saving.
In its former guise, CSCA played in the Ukrainian Premier League and reached two Ukrainian Cup Finals and also competed in both the European Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Cup. These days the club is wholly amateur and the team participates in the Championship and Cup of the KSRFF (Kiev-Svyatoshinsky Regional Football Federation).
The officials, coaches and players of the club work and play entirely for free but the club needs £1,200 per month to pay for administrative aspects such as medical provision, pitch hire, and competition fees. The club is hoping to join the new season in August and so we are trying to raise £5,000 to pay for participation in the months of August, September, October and November 2022.
Because of the war, many individuals have gone to fight for their country to help Ukraine resist Russian aggression. These individuals include Head Coach, Ruslan Perizhok.
Please help if you can. England is the home of football and together we can prolong the life of this important football club.
Yours in sport,
Phil Howden
