To Spond or Not to Spond, that is the question... well I've often seen that question, so here's my take on how it's worked at Lewes.
What I would really like to know, is you're experiences using the fund raising on SPOND, please share your thoughts, good or bad

To Spond or Not to Spond

From attendance to fundraising, let's look at the Spond app and see if it might work for you

⚽️ Walking football is built on respect — but what happens when that’s crossed?
We’re asking the community: how has your club dealt with safeguarding issues or inappropriate behaviour?
