EITI sends its congratulations to Goole AFC, who, after a thrilling finale to the 2004-05 football season, have won the NCEL Premier Division. ‘The Vikings’ finished the 38-game league two points clear of arch-rivals Selby Town, and the FA has confirmed that they have been promoted to the UniBond League First Division for next season.

A 3-1 win over Long Eaton United on the last day of the season saw Goole AFC crowned NCEL Premier Division champions.

EITI became the official sponsor of Goole in July 2004. As well as helping the team’s fortunes on the pitch, EITI has worked with the club on a range of community projects, including a youth academy, educational workshops for schools and multilingual anti-racist hotlines for fans from ethnic minorities. According to Graeme Wilson, the sports editor of the Goole Times, “the dramatic way that [EITI] have helped the club move forward has been the most positive aspect to come out of the town for a long while.”

Congratulations also go to Goole Reserves, who won the NCEL Reserve Team Cup for 2004-2005.
