<p>As a new youth team we would like to supply all boys with a kit to match the whole team and cover the cost of playing at all weather pitches positively impacting the cost of living for our families.</p>

<p>We as young ambassadors at Ardrossan Academy would like to apply for funding towards our extra curricular clubs equipment. We have a variety of clubs going on within the school for all ages however the lack of equipment means we are limited to how many kids can take part and what sports they can be offered. Alot of&nbsp;the equipment is dated and in need of replacement. This new equipment would allow for more pupils to get involved in sport who do not get the opportunity out with of school. The cost of local clubs means some of our pupils don&#39;t get the chance to try different sports and the volunteers/teachers within the school who co-ordinate the clubs need some support with this equipment fund.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ardrossan Winton Rovers Youth Academy&nbsp;2010 team&nbsp;are&nbsp;particpating in a&nbsp;football tournament located in Holland during Easter&nbsp;2024.&nbsp; This is an amazing opportunity for our team to create memories with their friends and families&nbsp;whilst enjoying the sport they love.&nbsp; The boys are looking forward to playing against other teams from around the world and to learn new skills.</p>

<p>Enhancing the outdoor space available at Dykesmains, we would like to support the Eco Committee in further developing the outdoor areas, including the outdoor classroom and spaces for lessons in sustainability and with the family learning team.</p>

<p>With the cost of living crisis it has proved a challenge to fundraise. The team&nbsp;will be going to their first ever abroad tournament in Holland in March 2024.&nbsp;</p> <p>We have done a huge amount of fundraising to cover the costs of all the boys to travel and stay in Holland.&nbsp;</p> <p>We are applying to this fund to help cover the costs of meals,&nbsp;strips and a zip track top.&nbsp;</p>
