Who is eligible to apply?

Any youth sports team aged between 4-15 and with up to 30 members is eligible to apply, as long as the team is based in Scotland, England or Wales. If you do not meet our eligibility criteria, we will unfortunately be unable to accept or process your application.

How many teams can be entered from one club?

You can enter as many teams from one sports club as you want; however, please only submit one entry per age group as only one entry will be accepted. Please ensure a different applicant applies for each age group as we will not accept multiple entries from the same email address.

How many times can we apply?

Please only apply once. Even if your entry is not chosen in our first month’s draw, you will be automatically enrolled into the next month.

Who should apply for the team?

Coaches or parents of the team are encouraged to enter. However, please discuss this amongst the team to ensure that there is only one applicant per team. Please also note that if the application is chosen, the entrant must be the person to claim the kits on the online portal.
