Well done to our Club P.R.O. Dave Noble who was delighted to represent NTAFC in the Today FM Club Champions competition but was even more relieved to take the honours back to Newport and not embarrass himself too much in the process. Thanks to Dave’s sporting knowledge, a new set of Today FM sponsored club gear will be making its way to Derryleigh Park in readiness for when our teams are back in action, hopefully sooner rather than later. Given the year that we’ve all just gone through and the severe impact it’s had on our fundraising efforts, this prize is truly appreciated and gives everyone in the club a great boost.

Speaking after the quiz, a relieved Dave commented "I was genuinely surprised to get the call to ask Newport Town AFC to participate in the Today FM Club Champions quiz and absolutely thrilled to then go on to win and scoop up the brilliant prize of a new set of sponsored playing gear for our club. The last few months have been incredibly tough for our club and all sports club throughout the country. Our 500 players, on 30 teams, ranging in age from 5 to 50, really miss training, playing games and just hanging out with their friends on our pitches and in the clubhouse in Derryleigh Park. Unfortunately, our fundraising efforts have been drastically affected due to Covid 19, while the bills still have to be paid. Our 50th Anniversary celebrations in 2020 also had to be put on hold due to Covid. Hopefully this win will give our club, community and players a big lift and it will be onwards & upwards for the remainder of 2021. A massive thanks to Today FM for this initiative and support of community clubs throughout the country."

P.S. He really does know that Usain Bolt is the fastest man in the world.
