Press Release Summary = New chairman discusses his future role and potential
sponsorship

Press Release Body = Chris Arkell is the new Chairman of Gosport Borough Youth
Football Club. Chris, a lifelong supporter of Gosport, was Voted in at last nights
Youth Committee meeting to succeed Neil Stewart, who resigned from the post to take
up a new job in London.

Chris, 41 and a qualified FA coach, takes up the post after a short spell as Vice
Chairman and Manager of the Boro\'s Under 11\'s team, who play in the Portsmouth Glass
Youth League. Chris is also FA qualified in training disabled footballers.

Chris\' aspirations are to ensure that Boro\'s 300 children continue to enjoy their
football and continue to develop their footballing skills/techniques in association
his excellent team of youth coaches at Privett Park. Chris is also keen to develop
football for the disabled and training for children under 6 in Gosport using grants
recently received from Gosport Voluntary Action.

Chris Arkell said \'\' It\'s a privilege to be part of the Boro set-up and watch the
children have fun and develop their footballing talents\'\'.

Another task for Chris is to find a sponsor for the children\'s 300 football jackets,
which are to be ordered in the new year. They would like a local Company to support
the purchase and in return offer sponsorship on the back of each coat.

\"At Gosport Boro Youth we\'re keen to see footballers develop for the next 50+ years,
but we really could do with a helping hand. Our talented youngsters who start as
young as 4 and include both boys and girls, all 300 of them, play all over
Hampshire, infact, some 500 games each year, plus a further 500 games at tournaments
during the summer. They are all coached by FA affiliated Coaches and share a common
goal - to enjoy their football.

We would really like a major sponsor to come on board and share in the children\'s
football development. We can offer an amazing amount of high profile advertising
across the Borough. A presence at football events every week in front of respectable
crowds, at training venues and at school. Web site advertising and the oppotunity to
grow with our vision - to become a Charter Standard Club\".

Chris is 41 and works on the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth. He is married to
Elaine and has 4 children. He lives on Cherque Farm, Lee on the Solent. Loves footy
especially watching the Boro and reading wartime poetry.
