THE city's schoolboy footballers are cashing in with YorKash.

The York and District Schoolboy teams have been awarded £2,850 in the latest round of grants from the YorKash Young People's Panel.

The grant was spent on kit (£1,250), equipment (£1,250) and medals and trophies (£350).

All the schoolboy squad members at age groups from Under-11s to U15s received rain jackets and tracksuits.

Each of the team coaches was handed a portion of the cash to buy training balls and equipment, while the trophy money has been set aside to help fund the end-of-season presentation evening in May.
