Story

Help Spartans Next Gen get to the Holland Easter Open 2026

We’re Spartans Next Gen – a hardworking, girls’ academy team with big ambitions. In April 2026, we’re planning on competing at the Holland Easter Open, one of Europe’s largest youth football tournaments. This is a unique opportunity for our players to test themselves against top international opposition, experience a new culture, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Why this matters?

Player development: Competing internationally will accelerate our players’ technical, tactical, and personal growth.

• Life skills: Travel, teamwork, resilience, and independence – lessons that go far beyond football.

• Inspiration: Representing Spartans and our community on a European stage will inspire younger players coming through our pathway.

What your donation supports?

Every pound goes directly toward making this trip possible: • Travel and accommodation for players and volunteer staff

• Tournament entry fees and logistics (transport, equipment, insurance)

• Player meals and essential kit for the duration of the trip

• Subsidy support to ensure no player is left behind due to cost

Our goal

We’re aiming to raise £5000 to cover essential costs and keep the trip affordable for all families. We’ll also be running local fundraisers, community events, and sponsorship drives to support the total.

How you can help?

Donate, any amount makes a difference.

• Sponsor: If you’re a business and would like to partner with us, we’d love to hear from you.

Thank you
