At Hy-Pro Sports, we believe the future of football is built at grassroots level. Not in stadiums, but on muddy pitches on a Saturday morning. In community centres midweek. In the moments a young player touches a ball for the very first time and falls in love with the game.
That belief is exactly why we're proud to announce our partnership with Leicestershire and Rutland County FA as their official training and equipment partner.
"Partnering with Leicestershire & Rutland County FA is a fantastic opportunity for us to support grassroots football at every level. At Hy-Pro, we're passionate about making sport more accessible through high-quality, affordable equipment, and this collaboration allows us to work closely with clubs and communities to help drive participation and enjoyment of the game." Bhavik Shah, COO — Hy-Pro International
Supporting Football Where It Matters Most
Grassroots football is the heartbeat of the sport. It develops not just players, but people — and the communities that surround them. The volunteers who show up every week, the coaches who give their time, and the young players finding their feet deserve quality equipment and genuine support. That's something we feel a real responsibility to provide.
Through quarterly giveaways to clubs and members across Leicestershire and Rutland, we want to ensure that the people doing the vital work of growing the game have the tools they need to do it well.
"This partnership with Hy-Pro Sports represents a fantastic opportunity to further support our grassroots community, particularly through our Wildcats Programme. The addition of quarterly giveaways will provide real, tangible benefits to our centres, helping to enhance the experience for young players and the volunteers who deliver these sessions. We're excited to work together to continue inspiring positive change through football across Leicestershire and Rutland." Matt Yeomans, Head of Commercial and Marketing — Leicestershire & Rutland County FA
The Wildcats Programme
We're particularly excited to support the Wildcats Programme, which introduces girls aged 5 to 11 to football in a fun, inclusive, and safe environment. Giving young girls a positive, welcoming first experience of football is one of the most important things the game can do right now — and we're honoured to play a part in that.
"Having come through the game as a professional footballer, I've seen first-hand how vital strong grassroots structures are to the future of the sport. Partnering with Leicestershire & Rutland FA is a fantastic opportunity to support football at every level, and to help provide clubs and communities with the resources they need to grow participation and enjoyment of the game." Jake Howells, Director of Sports — Hy-Pro International
Growing the Game Together
Supporting grassroots football is at the core of what we do at Hy-Pro Sports. Partnerships like this one with Leicestershire and Rutland County FA are a reflection of our wider commitment to clubs, coaches and communities across the country — and we're excited to see the impact this collaboration will have on and off the pitch.
