Building connections with the local community through football
We teamed up with Kings Hill FC to celebrate the club's end of season awards ceremony. Our nearby retirement community in Kings Hill called The Landings provided trophies for the occasion.
The awards were presented on Saturday 17th June to members of Kings Hill FC. Kings Hill FC has over 50 teams, ranging from five-year-olds finding their feet on the pitch, to the well-established veteran groups. Founded in 2003, the grassroots club has grown to welcome over 300 players in the last 20 years and has become an important part of the community.
With facilities to accommodate players of all levels, from pros in their elite squads, to the community-driven colt and development teams, the club’s dedication to the loyalty of their players is made clear at their annual awards ceremony. This year, to mark the completion of our luxury specialist homes nearby, the 2023 Kings Hill FC trophies will be engraved with The Landings development logo.
Dale Funnell, senior sales consultant said:
It’s important to us to be able to positively contribute towards community groups in the areas where we are building new homes. Kings Hill FC is a prime example of an association that champions inclusion in their community, as demonstrated by their lengthy membership list. Being fit and active is becoming more and more important today. At The Landings we have a range of services and support for residents such as our Be Well 360 programme, which can help boost fitness and wellbeing. It's great to be able to work with a club that is staunchly encouraging healthy lifestyles, from childhood well into adulthood.
Barry Gethin, Chairman at Kings Hill FC, said:
Our end of season awards ceremony is a very special day for everyone involved in the club. It’s a moment for us to not only recognise our champions from the past season, but also acknowledge the hard work and improvement our players have achieved over the year. This sponsorship by The Landings means we can recognise our loyal players who have worked tirelessly in improving their skills, not only on the pitch, but skills like teamwork and resilience off the pitch too.
