Aston Villa Foundation manager, Ross Alexander shared: “We are pleased to be introducing the Corporate Cup as a brand-new event in our fundraising cycle, giving businesses and organisations the opportunity to support the community and charity work of the Foundation!
“The fans are one of our biggest stakeholders and may be the first and only in-person experience fans will have with the Club through our programme delivery or ongoing positive club to fan connection.
“The Corporate Cup is an opportunity for teams to play at the recently opened Inner-City Academy, an exclusive facility usually only open to Academy players and Foundation participants, and network with other groups to foster collaboration and partnerships, a key part of the Foundation’s strategic functions.”
