Grip Flex Sponsors Silverdale Knights U11s – Supporting Grassroots Football in Walsall
At Grip Flex, football has never been just about products. It has always been about performance, development, and supporting the game at the level where it truly begins.
We are proud to announce that Grip Flex is now an official sponsor of Silverdale Football Club’s Silverdale Knights Under-11s, who compete in the Walsall Youth Junior Football League.
As part of this sponsorship, Grip Flex has provided the team with a brand-new home kit, and gifted every player a pair of Grip Flex grip socks as Christmas presents — helping to support the boys both on and off the pitch.
Supporting grassroots football in the West Midlands
Silverdale Football Club is a well-established grassroots club in the Walsall area, dedicated to developing young players in a positive, structured, and competitive environment.
Grassroots football is where technical foundations are built, confidence is developed, teamwork is learned, and a genuine love for the game begins.
By sponsoring the Silverdale Knights U11s, Grip Flex is proud to play a small part in supporting youth football across Walsall and the wider West Midlands.
Why Grip Flex is investing in grassroots football
Grip Flex is a Midlands-based football performance brand, founded with a clear purpose: to create performance equipment grounded in real football environments.
Sponsoring a grassroots team allows us to stay connected to the realities of football — from winter pitches and demanding training sessions to the passion and commitment that grassroots football brings.
This partnership is also personal. The Grip Flex founder’s son signed for Silverdale Knights at the start of the 2025/26 season, making this sponsorship a genuine community and family-driven collaboration.
Supporting grassroots football is not just something we talk about. It is something we are actively involved in.

New kit sponsorship and player support
