Hello! My name is Sam and I am severe to profoundly deaf in both ears. I have represented England’s Deaf Men’s at two major tournaments already, Deaf World Cup in 2023 in Malaysia and Deaf Euros in 2024 in Turkey.

I have been picked to play for Great Britain Deaf Men’s U’23s squad to play in the upcoming U23

Deaf World Cup in Serbia, May 2026.

Unfortunately GB is different to England as it is self funded and we don’t receive any support from the FA or government. We have to pay for training camps for example the costs of hiring places out, training and matchday kits, insurances and all on pitch or off pitch equipment.

This is why I am reaching out for some support. I need to raise £2000 in order to play in the tournament. I would massively appreciate it if anyone could donate sponsor, it doesn’t matter how big or small.

Additionally if you could share this so more people could see or know any of companies who would be willing to donate to sponsor me then that would be greatly appreciated!
