huge success for local team
Great Yarmouth Sport & Leisure Trust (GYSLT) is pleased to share some brilliant news from Gorleston FC Typhoons U13s, who previously received support through our community grant programme. Find out more about their Grant awarded in 2025 >
Creating More Opportunities for Young Players
The team have had an outstanding season, going on to win the NSYFL U13 Cup - the highest trophy in their age group. This Under-13 knockout cup competition - the North Suffolk Youth Football League - is one of the main trophies available to teams in their age group. The Norfolk & Suffolk Youth Football League was founded in 1982.
Over 3000 children from the Great Yarmouth, Lowestoft, South Norfolk and North Suffolk area enjoy organised football matches.
a football-fantastic year
It’s a fantastic achievement built on hard work, teamwork and commitment throughout the year. The club has shared that the earlier GYSLT grant made a real difference, helping to support training and development and contributing to the environment that allowed the team to progress and succeed. The funding has been well used across the season, supporting regular sessions and match preparation.
LOOKING AHEAD
GYSLT is delighted to see the positive, long-term impact of grassroots sport funding in action and congratulates Gorleston FC Typhoons U13s on a fantastic cup-winning season.
