Want to do something good? Want to give back to the local community? Or even just fancy a challenge? Now is your chance. Become Northampton Town’s twelfth man by signing up to the NTFC 100 club. This is an amazing opportunity to support the club’s charity work to continue improving people’s lives across Northamptonshire.
How does it work?
We are looking for 100 people to get involved, whether you’re a fan, a resident or just someone who wants to help, we are grateful for any support you can offer! The challenge is for each person to aim to raise £100 by the end of the season. Think of a fundraising idea or simply provide a donation. The crazier or wackier the idea the better! The club runs for the full season and is open to 100 fans/community members to be a part of.
1. Think of an idea for how you want to fundraise, whatever way you want, the wackier and the weirder the better! Could be a bake sale, could be a sponsored gunge, could be not using your mobile phone/social media for a week! Lots of ideas can be found on our website.

What happens when I hit the £100 target?
Top work! In completing the challenge you’ll be given a special edition certificate to say thank you for your support and your money will be collected ready to be put to great use improving the lives of people within the local community. But it doesn’t have to stop there. If you continue to raise funds throughout the remainder of the season, everyone who raises over £100 will then be in with a chance of winning a very special prize, a private training ground visit to meet and greet the manager and players!
