Introducing our away kit for the 2022/23 season.

The white top with a claret and amber stripe coming through our badge, will be worn as an alternate to our home colours this campaign.

You can buy your away strip now.

Our white shorts also have claret and amber detail horizontally on the side which match up with a small touch of claret and amber on our white shorts.

In the finer detail, we have claret cuffs with ‘Steelmen’ embedded on the back of the neck, like our home top.

On the collar, we have small claret and amber lines going around the neckline.

Manufactured again by Macron, the shirt also features our main sponsor Paycare and fellow partners G4 Claims, as well as our ongoing partnership with North Lanarkshire Suicide Prevention. TCL will be appear as our main shorts sponsor.

Celebrate the start of the school summer holidays with our School’s Out event at Fir Park.

Providing the entertainment this year will be Country pop band Jubillee.

This incredible twosome could well be the next big thing to emerge from Scotland and ironically that could well be because of the Pandemic.

From playing to a few hundred people on Facebook every Sunday from their home in Motherwell due to COVID restrictions, to being courted by one of the world’s top producers of country music in the space of just 18 months, the story goes from strength to strength. Justine & Billy will travel to Nashville later this year to start work with Kent Wells – the musical director to Dolly Parton.

With showcase concerts already lined up in Nashville this summer, it certainly looks like being an incredible rise to fame for this amazing Country Pop duo.

Following Jubillee will be karaoke and music from DJ Jammin Jimmy.

Date: 29^th June 2022

Location: Centenary Suite.

Time: Doors open at 13.30

Cost: £15pp includes buffet

Introducing the Motherwell FC home kit for the 2022/23 season. 

You can order yours now.

This year’s kit is inspired by our history. A modern take on a 1980’s classic, 40 years on.

With vertical claret bands and the amber front and centre, it is purely our true colours throughout.

The shorts are made up of claret, with amber stripes going down each side. The amber socks also come with three claret bands at the top.

With this kit, it’s all about the finer detail. Our refreshed Motherwell badge will appear on it for the first time.

Across the edges of each vertical panel, we have a subtle pattern going across the edges to modernise the classic look and feel of the top.

Paycare will again be our main sponsor. We also continue to raise awareness of a vital message close to the club’s heart, with North Lanarkshire Suicide Prevention on our sleeve for another season.

TCL will also remain our main sponsor on the shorts.

The kit is on sale now, with infant kits due in stock week commencing 20 June.

A little more than ten years after it was established, Motherwell Football Club Community Trust has published a Social Return on Investment report which shows the true value of its work to the local community.

Created by UEFA, European football’s governing body, the model was created to provide National Associations with a tool to understand the value of football participation at all levels.

From grassroots and community football clubs to national and government levels, the report aims to provide tangible evidence of how football can serve to improve the lives of those living within Scottish society.

The model sees experts from educational institutions across Europe assist with the research into the benefits of grassroots participation, including the University of Birmingham and Malmo University.

The report’s findings have highlighted the excellent work the Trust has done and what it has contributed to the local community and people. In 2021, a year disrupted by lockdowns, restricted numbers and travel, the Trust brought benefits of £13.64m to the local community.

The figure is broken down into three sub sections:

•  £8,560,000 economic impact of social benefits
•  £387,074 direct contributions to the economy
• £4,692,000 healthcare savings from football participation

“At Motherwell we are consistently trying to assist our community and the people in our area in any way we can” Chief Executive Alan Burrows said.

“These findings show the local community is benefitting from the work the Trust does and I think it shows what an excellent job Dawn and the Community Trust staff do.

“It is excellent to see how the Motherwell FC Community Trust is also helping our local community through the power of football.

“I am very proud of what they have achieved and who they have helped, in what has been a challenging two years for everyone.”

Motherwell is renowned in Scottish football for its community focus and as a fan-owned club the work is central to all departments.

“Football plays a major role in supporting local communities but it can be difficult to place a monetary value on that contribution,” Dawn Middleton General Manager of the Community Trust said.

“Working with partners at UEFA and the Scottish Football Association we are proud to be launching this report which shows the contribution of Motherwell FC Community Trust to our local community in 2021.

“We hope that the findings will help us to grow our work with our partners and face the challenges of the current economic situation.”

Calling all supporters. Mental health and suicidal thoughts can affect anyone.

There can be stigma attached to suicide and that means many people feel uncomfortable talking about it. We need to change that and encourage people to talk more openly about it to help save lives.

As a community club, we are proud to work with Suicide Prevention North Lanarkshire to help raise awareness and offer our support to those who need it. Through this partnership, we help raise awareness by carrying the message on our strips, in our match programmes, through our social media and using pitch side helpline numbers.

We need to help the partnership understand the impact that the campaign is having and to see how we can build and improve upon it. We all have a part to play in preventing the tragedy of suicide.

Please take a couple of minutes to complete our short survey so we can help tackle suicide together. The survey is for people aged over 16 years old.

Our popular Business Breakfast will next take place on Thursday 16^th June in the Millennium Suite at Fir Park.

Hear from club partners G4 Claims, TCL and Suicide Prevention.

Tickets cost just £10 per person. The price includes a breakfast roll, tea/coffee and orange juice.  The event starts at 8.30am and runs until 10am

To book your place, email mhairi.daly@motherwellfc.co.uk, book online or call on 01698 338011.

A message from our main sponsor and health and wellbeing partner, Paycare.

We’re calling on the community to show its support for a bike ride in aid of a mental health charity.

Paycare is one of the main sponsors of The Kris Boyd Charity Ride, which will start at the Molineux and end more than 400 miles away four days later in Scotland, with all proceeds going to The Kris Boyd Charity.

The challenge will begin on Wednesday 1st June, with riders stopping at Kris’ former clubs Nottingham Forest, Middlesbrough and Rangers, with an additional stop at Paycare-sponsored Motherwell FC before arriving at Kilmarnock FC on Saturday 4th June.

The Kris Boyd Charity was set up by the former footballer to encourage more people to talk openly about their mental health. He was inspired by the tragic loss of his brother Scott, who sadly died by suicide in 2016.

Event organiser Jim Bertram said:

“Over lockdown, mental health became an issue for everyone so I wanted to do an event which helped those impacted. The Kris Boyd Charity seemed a natural choice as they support mental health and wellbeing.”

Sally Bromley, Paycare’s Partnerships Engagement Officer, added:

“We are delighted to sponsor the shirts and vans for the event and will be cheering on the riders at the start and finish lines.

“The charity, and Jim’s aims with the bike ride, align perfectly with our mission of making the UK happier and healthier. We hope the community both in Wolverhampton and up in Scotland will wholeheartedly support the ride, donating whatever they’re able to and cheering the riders on, too.”
