A Wigan junior football team “couldn’t be happier” after receiving a £375 donation from STAX Converting.

The business donated £375 to the Hindley Town Football Club.

The local club spent the donation on brand new kits for the ‘Raiders’ team. The local players are under nine years old.

The youngsters debuted their new kit this Saturday October 18 against Moss Bank.

Football manager, Jonathan McMillan, said: “We’ve took on a few players recently, so we didn’t have enough kits.

 We really appreciate it, the kits look smart, and the lads couldn’t be happier.

“Massive thanks to JQ Plastering and STAX Converting for your ongoing support.”
