A once ailing youth football team is
now hoping for sweet success after gaining sponsorship
from Sela. Yardley based under 15s team Village Colts,
who play in the Central Warwickshire League, has changed
its name to Sela FC as a result of the sponsorship.
Sela has also organised a brand new team strip in Sela's
company colours, yellow and red, complete with the Sela-Cough
logo emblazoned across the chest. We have also organised
for coaching with Swansea and ex Coventry City player
John Williams in order to improve their football skills.
John Wilson, Operations Director, commented "The
youth team was brought to our attention by someone we
deal with in the business. We heard it had fallen into
financial difficulties, had lost some of its best players
and was in danger of folding, so we decided to help
out." Team Manager, Gary Langford said: "I've
been with the lads since they were 10 year olds. Without
the kind generosity of Sela they probably would
not have been playing football this season". The
season got off to a sweet
start for Sela FC, as they won their first match 4-3!
Pictured are Sela FC's Chris Langford aged 14 and Scott
Curry, also 14, with Sela's John Wilson, age a secret
but quite a few times more than 14!!
