Football Workforce Awards 2008

The Football Association has produced a certificate and a FA Volunteer pin badge for clubs and league volunteers, which your Club/League can present to your volunteers as one way to recognise their contribution to the game. If your club would like to order some certificates, and pin badges please Contact the County Office for an application form. Certificates and pin badges will then be sent to you by the end of June.

Clubs/leagues can also nominate a person using a nomination form, to be considered by their County Football Association for a County award. These forms will be sent to all Club and League Secretaries over the next month. This form should be returned to your County FA by 31st May 2008, if you have someone within your club who you think deserves an award for their contribution to football let your secretary know now.

County FA’s will be able to present 5 County Awards. Each County FA will be invited to nominate one person to the FA. From these nominations the FA will choose 7 people to receive National Football Workforce Awards for their contribution to football during the 2007-08 season.

In addition you can nominate to your County FA a Young Volunteer [Under 18 at start of the season] for recognition. The County FA can chose 1 Young winner and nominate this person to The FA who in turn will chose 3 Young Volunteers to attend The FA Community Shield.
