"The substantial period of poor weather this winter and the poor drainage issues with the pitch which has resulted in numerous postponements has caused the groundsman (my Uncle Ben) this season a serious challenge."
"Not only is it important for Hereford FC to be playing consistent home games on a well maintained surface at Edgar Street but for me it's also vitally important for the youth of Herefordshire to play their traditional finals on the pitch."
"I feel it's a fantastic opportunity for myself to give something back to not only the club but the community that gave me an opportunity within football."
Jarrod Bowen is contributing to a new drainage system at Hereford FC, the club he joined 12 years ago. The club has faced challenges due to poor weather, leading to postponed games. Bowen emphasized the importance of consistent home games and supporting local youth football. The project will begin in the off-season and be completed by the 2026-27 season. Club chairman Chris Ammonds expressed gratitude for Bowen's support, highlighting the significant impact of the contributions on the club's future.
