The Football Foundation has produced a free Marketing and PR Toolkit specifically designed to help you promote your facility, fill those slots and increase participation!

It offers some simple tips to enable you to reach local clubs, businesses, schools or the general public and tell them about opportunities to hire out your facilities or promote activities you run.

It is a user-friendly guide which introduces some simple marketing techniques but makes them relevant for people who run community sports facilities. They have also cut out the jargon and translated the marketing methods into layman’s terms. But best of all it’s completely free!

Whether it is producing posters, press releases, arranging events, using Twitter, learning more about marketing, or even developing a website, the toolkit covers it.
