[BFC SITE] BFCCT CELEBRATES RECORD-BREAKING SEASON

Barnsley FC Community Trust is proud to announce a record-breaking milestone for the 2024/25 season, with an incredible 186 appearances made by Barnsley FC’s first team, academy players, coaches, women’s team, and club alumni.


This season’s total marks the highest number of appearances ever recorded by the Trust, showcasing the commitment to making a lasting impact across the community. From school visits and game afternoons to youth programmes and community events, Barnsley FC players have been more involved than ever before.

“This year has been fantastic,” said Kieron Campbell, CEO of the Community Trust. “From classrooms to social groups, the support and engagement we’ve seen from every part of the club has been truly inspiring. These appearances go a long way in strengthening bonds and bringing joy to so many people in Barnsley.”

Behind each visit are the dedicated staff members who work tirelessly to coordinate and support these efforts. Without their passion, planning, and day-to-day commitment, such a milestone would not be possible.

“We’re proud to be a community club at the heart of a tight-knit town,” added Jon Flaman, CEO of Barnsley FC and trustee of the Community Trust. “These 186 appearances reflect not just our players’ commitment, but our belief that representing Barnsley means more than just what happens on the pitch. We want every player to understand that being part of this club means being part of the wider community - it’s who we are, and it’s a key part of our identity.”

As the 2024/25 season draws to a close, the Barnsley FC Community Trust extends its heartfelt thanks to everyone involved players, coaches, staff, and fans for making it a standout year. We will now look ahead with excitement, aiming to build on this momentum and continue delivering meaningful outreach throughout the community.

Here’s to another season of connection, commitment, and community.
