From The Factory Floor to the Football Field

October 18, 2025

Here at West Special Fasteners, we’re delighted to be supporting something that really matters. Our local community, our colleagues, and the next generation of footballers.

We’ve recently started sponsoring the Under-12s Girls Gold Team, who train just up the road at the local secondary school in Dronfield. This energetic, talented squad is full of promise, and one of our own team members has a daughter on the pitch, so this one’s close to home.

It’s About Time, Isn’t It?

Let’s be honest football’s been seen as a “lads’ sport” for far too long. But that’s changing fast. More girls getting stuck in and showing their skills, and loving the game just as much as the boys. In 2025, it’s not just accepted, it’s celebrated. And we’re all for that.

We’ve teamed up with Qualitas Sport, who do a fantastic job helping kids of all abilities get involved in sport. They’re all about giving every child a chance to play, learn, and grow, whether they’re just starting out or dreaming of going pro one day. That’s something we’re proud to support.

Look How Far It’s Come

Recent Women’s Euros and World Cup football tournaments show just how far the game’s come. Since the Lionesses lifted the Euro 2022 trophy and made it all the way to the World Cup final in 2023, women’s football has continued to thrive. Their latest triumph at the UEFA Women’s Euro 2025, where they successfully defended their title has only added to the momentum. The historic win cemented their legacy and ignited the excitement of fans across the country. With celebrations erupting nationwide and a surge in grassroots participation. It’s an incredibly exciting time for the sport, with more girls than ever before inspired to take up the game and chase their footballing dreams

More Than Just a Game

This isn’t just about football, we’re backing our people. We’re helping young girls build confidence, join a team and have fun. And were showing up for the community we live and work in.

What makes this sponsorship even more special is the personal connection. Seeing one of our own cheering from the sidelines, watching their child thrive, reminds us why we do this. Its not just about kits and logos, its about pride, belonging and being part of something bigger.

And you can see it in the teams faces, The joy, the laughter, the teamwork. Its clear they are doing something they love. Whether they’re scoring goals or just enjoying the camaraderie, they’re building memories that will last a lifetime.

We’re fortunate to be in a position where we can give something back, and even more fortunate to see the difference it makes.

Here’s to the Season Ahead

We’ll be cheering on the U12 Girls Gold Team every step of the way this season. Whether they win, lose, or draw, they’ve already made us proud just by getting out there and giving it their all.

At West Special Fasteners, we believe in building strong foundation and that starts with supporting the people around us.

Come on, girls. Let’s have a great season!
