Introducing Stenhousemuir FC Community Foundation
From January 2024, Warriors in the Community will have a new name:
Stenhousemuir FC Community Foundation
Since Warriors in the Community became the charitable arm of Stenhousemuir FC in 2021, we have encountered situations where the name did not accurately convey the scope of our work. Warriors in the Community is a strong “brand name” when it comes to community football in the Falkirk area. It became clear to us that, outside of football, some stakeholders did not understand the link with Stenhousemuir FC.
Although community football is our most popular and impactful programme, we are not solely focused on football. Our purpose is to Energise the Community and use the power of sport to change lives for the better. Unfortunately, our former name often led to misunderstandings about our true purpose.
We believe Stenhousemuir FC Community Foundation paints a clearer picture of who we are, and the diverse initiatives we undertake to enrich the lives of our community members. This name change aligns us more closely with other organisations both nationally and internationally that leverage the power of sport to create positive change. We have begun the process of updating our branding, both online and offline.
For our members, and those we interact with daily within our local community, nothing will change. Young Maroons will still be Young Maroons. Our Community Teams will still wear the Stenhousemuir FC badge. Our commitment to supporting and developing our community through football and non-football activities remains unchanged.
We’re thrilled to embark on this new chapter using a name that truly embodies who we are and what we are about. The word “community” is synonymous with Stenhousemuir Football Club, something that we are incredibly proud of.
