AFC Football Boot Exchange is Back: Save Money and Support the Club!
We’re thrilled to announce that the AFC Football Boot Exchange is open again! If you’re a parent or player at our grassroots club, you know how fast children’s feet grow and how quickly the cost of replacing football boots can add up. The good news is that our football boot exchange is here to help!
At AFC, we believe in fostering community spirit both on and off the field. One of the best ways we can support our families is by making sure every player has the equipment they need without breaking the bank. Whether your child has outgrown their current pair or you simply have a set of boots that no longer fit, you can bring them along to the exchange and swap for a new size.
How the Boot Exchange Works
- Bring in your old boots: If your child has a pair of football boots they’ve outgrown, you can donate them to the exchange.
- Take home a new pair: Browse through the available boots to find a pair that fits! You can swap for the same size or grab a larger one if needed.
- No pair to swap? No problem: If you don’t have boots to swap but need a pair, we welcome donations of a small fee to help keep the exchange running and stocked with boots for others in the same situation.
Why Participate?
- Save Money: Football boots can be pricey, especially if your child is growing quickly. The boot exchange offers a cost-effective solution to ensure they always have what they need to perform at their best.
- Promote Sustainability: By reusing boots, we can help reduce waste and lessen the environmental impact of constantly buying new pairs.
- Support the AFC Community: Our boot exchange is a club initiative, and participating is a great way to contribute to the wider AFC family. It’s also a perfect opportunity to meet other families and share stories on and off the field
When and Where?
You can drop off and pick up boots at the clubhouse every Saturday morning during training sessions. Look for the designated boot exchange area where our volunteers will be on hand to help you find the right pair.
We’re incredibly proud of this initiative, and with your support, we can keep it going strong. Football is a sport for everyone, and by helping each other, we can make sure that every player at AFC has the right gear to shine on the pitch.
So, next time your child outgrows their boots, don’t toss them out—bring them to AFC’s Football Boot Exchange and give them a second life!
See you at the clubhouse!
