Danny Hart, Year 3 teacher at Gateford Park Primary School, said they are ‘extremely grateful’ for the kit sponsorship.
He said: “After two tricky years, we are delighted to be playing regular fixtures again.
“The kits look fantastic and the boys are very proud to wear them.

The kit sponsorship with Gateford Park Primary School comes as another football-themed contribution to the community from Barrat Homes, following a previous donation last year of mini footballs to the children at Puddleducks Pre-School.
Mark Cotes, managing director at Barratt Homes North Midlands, said: “It’s hugely important to support the sports teams in our local communities as it keeps children active whilst inspiring the next generation of athletes.
“We’re very happy to have provided the pupils of Gateford Park Primary School with two brand new kits and have hopefully contributed to their future success in sports.”
