Help the Hastings Pirates – Support Our Crowdfunder!
We love our home field at Claremont Prep school playing fields in Hastings. Sadly, though, it’s now in serious need of repair – our home plate area (where the batter stands), in particular, needs a proper surface to ensure player safety and improve quality of play. We also need to replace aging safety equipment and basic playing gear, such as fielding gloves and bats. And we’re hoping to open a youth baseball programme to offer more young people the chance to try baseball – bringing real benefits to the local community – for which we’ll need more equipment.
We’ve calculated these improvements, which will help us give more people in Hastings the chance to try the great game of baseball, will cost £6,500. To raise this sum, we’ve recently launched HASTINGS FIELD OF DREAMS, our Crowdfunder campaign, with a target of £3,250 – we’re thrilled that Sport England has pledged to match anything we raise, effectively doubling the impact of every contribution we receive!
Whether you want to contribute to the growth of baseball in the UK, or would like to support community sport in Hastings, please consider making a donation, no matter how small – every little helps, and we’re so grateful for anything you’re able to give. And we’re also offering exciting partnership opportunities for businesses, local or otherwise – for more info, check out our HASTINGS FIELD OF DREAMS Crowdfunder page, or get in touch at playball@hastingsbaseball.co.uk.
Thank you!
