Stuart Smith, Northamptonshire FA’s Head of Facilities & Investment, said “I’m really pleased we have secured top-quality event medical cover for the 2023-24 season with First Line Medical. We witnessed their medical expertise at some of our events during the summer, dealing with some tricky injuries with a calm, confident approach. It made perfect sense for us to approach them and secure their services for all our County Cup finals and NFA-run events for the new season.”

Dr Fometu, Clinical Director of First Line Medical said “we have covered Northampton Town’s fixtures for 3 seasons now and are thrilled that we are able to play a bigger part of sport in Northamptonshire by partnering with the team at Northamptonshire FA.
