⚽ From Grassroots to Elite 👇

Our Burnley FC Football & Education Programme players experienced an unforgettable residential at St. George’s Park – the home of England’s national teams

From learning directly from England coaches to touring the world-class National Football Centre, the squad gained a real insight into what it takes to perform at the very top 🔥

They also had the chance to meet current and former pros, including Ashley Barnes and Jonjo Shelvey – hearing first-hand what it takes to succeed in the game 👏

The trip finished in style with a visit to Shrewsbury Town FC, where the lads showed incredible character to come from behind and win 3-2 💥 A perfect example of the resilience, quality and togetherness we demand every day.

💭 These are the experiences that shape players – on and off the pitch – building the standards, mindset and professionalism needed for the next level.

SPAR Stays All Onside 💙❤️

We’re thrilled that James Hall & Co. Ltd ( SPAR UK) are continuing their support as part of our All Onside Charity Business Club 🙌

Chris Gregory shared:
"It is fantastic to renew SPAR's partnership with Burnley FC in the Community. The charity's scope is wide, and they deliver excellent community work in and around the town. I have oversight of several SPAR stores across the Burnley and Pendle area. Our SPAR stores are at the heart of the communities that we serve so our sponsorship neatly aligns. There are many Burnley FC supporting colleagues within the retail teams i work with directly, and i too am a lifelong Claret."
