Following our support for the likes of Grenfell Athletic and Broadley FC in the last year, we are delighted to announce that another hugely important cause has teamed up with <\/em><\/strong>Kitlocker.com<\/em><\/strong><\/a> for the release of their next match kit. Welcome, BHF FC!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>

Kitlocker.com<\/strong><\/a> Joins Forces with BHF FC<\/strong><\/h2>

BHF FC was launched three years ago in memory of Peter Burr. His son, Gary, set up the team with his friends to raise awareness of heart conditions and money for the British Heart Foundation.<\/p>

Since then the Lincoln-based charity has competed in numerous games across the country, including a fiercely contested Lincolnshire derby against our friends Broadley FC<\/u><\/a> as well as a trip to St. George\u2019s Park.<\/p>

With the charity team unable to compete in matches over the winter Gary has been busy planning fixtures for the coming months, and a securing a brand new match kit to compete them in.<\/p>

We\u2019re thrilled to be working with the side, and hope that their shirts will serve them well when they return to action.<\/p>

Charity Team Set Target for 2021<\/strong><\/h2>

Gary, a Fundraising Manager for the charity, is hoping to raise \u00a310,000 for the charity by the end of year.<\/p>

\u201cAs a club, we have raised \u00a37,700 so far,\u201d said Gary. \u201cThis is mainly due to the charity football matches we have played, but also through donations.\u201d<\/p>

Unfortunately the pandemic has hit the club hard, and has meant that the charity have not been able to raise funds as they normally would. Still, they have persevered throughout the last year.<\/p>

\u201cDuring the outbreak of Covid-19, many of our games have been cancelled, but the team has been taking part in various virtual challenges as another way to raise money.\u201d<\/p>

Brand New Match Kit and Training Top<\/strong><\/h2>

Fortunately for lovers of grassroots football, the sport is back today. This means charity teams like BHF FC will soon be able to get back to raising funds on the pitch.<\/p>

For their return to action, we\u2019ve provided the Lincoln-based outfit with a brand new, bespoke #PowerUp<\/u><\/a> match kit. We\u2019ve turned the classic Nike Park VII jersey into something unique to the club<\/u><\/a>, with a vertical stripe made of British Heart Foundation symbols.<\/p>

The kit has already gone down a storm with the players of the charity outfit.<\/p>

\u201cWe all love the kit,\u201d Gary told us. \u201cIt\u2019s a brilliant design and we love the heart design. It\u2019s a classic kit that we will be proud to wear every time, and we thank Kitlocker.com<\/a> so much for the support.\u201d<\/p>
