To every groundskeeper who's ever dragged a sodden pitch back to life.
To every volunteer who's mucked out a flooded clubhouse so the kids could play again.
To every club that's kept going, season after season, whatever the weather throws at you.

We see you.

You are not just football clubs. You are the places where we celebrated our first goals and grieved our losses. Where communities show up for each other, week in, week out, in sunshine and in rain.

As our national teams head to the World Cup - we want to also send love to our community clubs, closer to home, who are struggling.

Here flooding and extreme weather is getting worse. Each season matches are being canceled, facilities flood and get fixed - only to get flooded again. So much is shouldered by volunteers and supporters just to keep the clubs going year after year, flood after flood. We are signing this letter because we love what you give us. And because we want you to still be here - for the next generation and the ones after.

We've got your back. Together we can raise our voices to get you the long-term support and solutions you need to keep our clubs going. 

Together we can help you weather the storm.  

Signed, your supporters, your communities, your people.
