Travel Sponsorship![]() |
From 1996 to 2001 two local companies - Duffields of East Anglia and Banham Poultry - each gave a generous donation to FONCY specifically for use to pay for Youth Team travel to away matches - over the period this totalled £15,000. Commencing with the season 2002/03 Eyre of Norwich and Peachman Refridgeration have each generously donated £2000 per season in travel sponsorship. In 2004/05 the companies kindly raised their sponsorship to £2500 each to cover Under-16 travel on Saturdays too. In 2007 FONCY are now looking for new Travel Sponsors.
