QCAFC is supported by The Farnfield Fund, generously endowed in 2022 by Trevor Bradley (1989) – a former Secretary of the Club. The Fund is named after the six extraordinary Farnfield brothers, Algernon (1893), Archibald (1900), Gilbert (1903), Herbert (1904), Percy (1908) and Bernard (1909), who all won football Blues. Algernon went on to win a full international cap in 1901, whilst three other brothers played for England in amateur internationals.

Students can apply to have travel and other football-related expenses reimbursed from the fund. To apply, please complete the application form.
