We're a small community group with a big heart — raising money to sponsor the match strips of Falkirk FC players each season. At the end of each season, the strips are raffled with the proceeds going to local charities.
Equity Bairns is a small but passionate group of Falkirk FC supporters who pool together to sponsor player strips each season. We believe every fan can play a part in supporting the club we love. At the end of each season, the sponsored shirts are raffled off — with all proceeds going to local charities close to our hearts.
Getting a player strip sponsored is straightforward. Here's how your support turns into kit on the pitch.
Sign up to become an Equity Bairn. You can choose how much you'd like to contribute.
A "one off" season payment of £10 is required to join, or more if you wish.
Contributions are pooled together by the group. We aim to sponsor as many Falkirk FC player strips as possible each season.
Sponsorships are confirmed with the club. Sponsors are acknowledged and your support becomes a visible part of Falkirk FC's season.
Each sponsored shirt entitles us to 2 tickets to the FFC official end of season dinner. This is a gala evening where you can mingle and have dinner with the players and staff of Falkirk Football Club at their Recognition Awards event. Every £10 you subscribe to the Equity Bairns entitles you to one chance of winning a coveted ticket. The more you subscribe, the more chances you have of winning!
At the end of the season, the Equity Bairns are presented with their sponsored match worn shirt, signed and framed. Shirts are raffled at the end of the season with proceeds going to local charities nominated by members of Equity Bairns.

A call for pledges to help sponsor players shirts for next season. As it stands £3230 has already been pledged but still a long way to go to ensure that we have our 7 shirts again (or more). We are always looking for new members, who are more than welcome to join our fans group helping both the club and local charities. If you want to have a chat about what we do, please just drop me a line, by the contact part below.
