Old Catton youth football team score new goalposts with donation from Orbit Homes

Youngsters playing football for Old Catton Junior FC in Norfolk have a brand-new set of goalposts to test their shooting boots on thanks to a contribution from Orbit Homes.

The housebuilder has supported the youth football team with a donation of two pop-up goals for use in training sessions, as well as a gazebo for rainy practices and matchdays. The young footballers train near Orbit Homes’ Dovecote Gardens development in Old Catton.

Old Catton Junior Football Club is one of the largest and most successful junior football clubs in Norfolk, with teams for six-year-olds through to Under 18s. Over 300 children and young people play for the club every season.

Sarah Price, Marketing Manager for Orbit Homes in the East, said: “We’re committed to making a positive impact in the local communities in which we build and we’re delighted to support Old Catton Junior Football Club with this donation. We’re very proud to play our small part in supporting young people in the area to stay active and healthy through football, and we hope the children enjoy scoring into the goals for many years to come.”

Sam Patterson, Manager of Old Catton Junior Football Club’s Under 7s team, added: “We’re very grateful to Orbit Homes for their donation of goalposts and a gazebo, it helps us ensure the kids enjoy training and matchdays to the fullest when they’re playing football with us. The team have already been having lots of fun hitting the back of the new nets!”
