On Wednesday, the Beacon Football Club received several custom made balls and water bottles from its overseas chapter in Brooklyn, USA.
With the intention to resuscitate operations at the club, the overseas chapter has taken the initial step towards the forward movement of the longstanding football club.
Among those involved in this selfless act are; Jermaine ’Left Foot’ Scott a former national junior and senior player, Allister Gill the club’s first goal keeper and son of former national and Police player, Lionel ‘Leo’ Gill’ Colin Reid Clarke, Jomo Benjamin, Claude Phillips, Dexter ‘JJ’ Cort and others.
Beacon FC was the first club outside the Linden teams to win the prestigious Kashif and Shanghai title in its first attempt.
Coach of the club Gordon Brathwaite said he is elated about the entire venture and there could only be more positives going forward, especially for the youth development.
The balls have the club name and logos on them.
