Charter Standard

It's relatively easy for RAF Units to achieve Charter Standard Status because the majority of the requirements of the Charter are already provided by the MOD as part of the infrastructure of units in the form of our outstanding sporting facilities. 

Benefits include:

Charter Standard Plaque (similar to Investing in People plaque) 
Charter Standard Certificate 
Use of the FA's 3 Lions logo on Club letterhead
Annual Umbro kit and equipment vouchers
Discount of Umbro purchases
Priority over non Charter Standard Units in the draw for England International Tickets for home games held at Wembley
Charter Standard is a requirement for entry into the RAF FA Club of the Year award in which the winning Club (Unit) receives x 4 FA Cup Final tickets
Access to RAF FA allocated Barclays Premiership tickets
Festival of Football soon to become a CS tournament
RAF London & Lincs Services Leagues soon to become CS Leagues
