Meet Our October CSP Grant Winner

Congratulations to our September CSP Grant Recipient – Whitehorse United Soccer Club. Since 1969, Whitehorse United has been dedicated to fostering a love for soccer in our community, welcoming players of all ages and backgrounds. With 42 junior teams, including six female teams, and five senior teams, they proudly contribute to Melbourne’s vibrant soccer scene from their home ground at Terrara Park.

“THANK YOU! We are so grateful to you and the Noel Jones Group to be the CSP Grant Recipient for October. The $1,000 grant will be put towards the cost of training equipment. Grants such as this give us the opportunity to provide additional equipment to facilitate the growth of the club. With an increase of 150 juniors this year and another increase expected in 2025, the grant gives us the opportunity to provide equipment needed to help develop player skills.” Enrico Marrone, President Whitehorse United Soccer Club.
