School football just got a major boost – and we’re incredibly proud to be part of it.
After supporting the English Schools’ Football Association (ESFA) for several years, we’re delighted to announce that our relationship is now official. Mark Harrod Ltd has been named the ESFA’s Official Goals Partner for the next three years – strengthening our shared commitment to helping schools across England access safe, reliable and long-lasting goals.
Because when it comes to school football, quality matters. Every goal scored, every training session, every future star – it all starts with equipment schools can trust.
Why We’re Working With the ESFA
The ESFA delivers football opportunities to hundreds of thousands of pupils every year. By partnering with them, we’re helping make sure that:
- Schools have access to safe, durable, British-made goals
- ESFA competitions and events run with equipment that meets the highest standards
- Member schools benefit from exclusive offers, promotions and expert advice
- Awareness grows around the importance of correctly installed and maintained equipment
For us, it’s simple: better goals lead to better, safer football. And together, we want every pupil to play on equipment built to last.
What This Means for Schools
Schools across England will gain access to:
✔ High-quality goalposts and sports equipment
Designed, engineered and manufactured right here in Staffordshire. #MadeInBritain
✔ Expert support from our in-house team
From maintenance guidance to product recommendations – we’re here to help.
✔ Discounts for ESFA-affiliated schools
20% off goals and team shelters – helping budgets stretch further without compromising on safety.
