The Norfolk County FA is delighted to announce that one of their lead partners, Harrod Sport
       has agreed to sponsor the 2020-21 Norfolk Women’s Cup Competition.
             One  of  the  world’s  biggest  sports  equipment  manufacturers  signed  a  three-year
       agreement to support Norfolk Football in 2019, and more recently extended that backing
       through the company’s new ‘Finesse’ Training range which is an official supporter of the
       Norfolk FA Coaches Club.
             This  latest  expansion  of  the  Norfolk  FA’s  collaboration  with  the  global  sports
       equipment manufacturers will see their sole female County Cup Competition now known as
       The Harrod Sport Women’s Cup.
             Harrod Sport, based in Lowestoft, currently provides equipment and goalposts to a
       multitude  of  Premier  League  Football  Clubs,  Wembley  Stadium  and  St  George’s  Park.  In
       addition to the English game, the organisation also supplies European giants such as Real
       Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Paris St Germain.
             No strangers to giving back to local causes, The Ron Harrod Foundation was founded
       in 2018 by Harrod Sport to provide funding for sportsmen and women under 25 to help them
       compete. Named after the company’s late founder Ron Harrod, the foundation has awarded
       £5,000 in funding towards local sports people each year since, as well as providing a two-year
       sponsorship of the Senior Women’s Team of local grassroots football club Wroxham FC.
             The partnership has seen and continues to see Norfolk affiliated football clubs receive
       a 35% discount off the trade price of Harrod Sport’s full, world class product range, along with
       free  carriage.  Not  to  mention  significant  investment  into  providing  top  quality  football
       equipment to our Football Development facilities.
             Having launched their Finesse training equipment range in 2020, Harrod Sport has
       extended its support further this season. Norfolk FA Coaches Club members can receive 10%
       off all orders, and now the finalists of the Norfolk Women’s Cup will receive a selection of
       complimentary Finesse equipment.
