The Trust is committed to working alongside and helping wherever possible all sections of the local fanbase and so NUST are pleased to be backing the Westgate Juniors Football Club. It is a relatively new football club which is now in its fourth year.

4 of  Westgate's volunteer coaches went to the Barnsley match on Saturday courtesy of NUST as part of our Local Achievers initiative.

Pictured are Becky Hendry, Jordan Johnson, Sean Hopkinson and Jamie Parsons before the game.

After the game they commented "We had a fantastic time, what a game to choose! six goals - but the highlight of the match had to me Jonas and that Spiderman Mask - brilliant!"

To complete a good day, Sean actually passed his level one coaching badge that morning.
