Loading firebase data outside of pages

Ionic Framework ionic-v3
1

I am trying to load a firebase outside of the pages so that any page can access the data without multiple requests using angularfire2.
I have created a class export which should load the database outside of pages however I am getting a runtime error:

Runtime Error
Can't resolve all parameters for FirebaseLoad: (?).

Here is the custom class export that is creating the error:

import { AngularFireDatabase, FirebaseListObservable } from 'angularfire2/database';
export class FirebaseLoad {
    private items: FirebaseListObservable<any[]>;
    
    constructor(afDB: AngularFireDatabase) {
      this.items = afDB.list('/clubs');
    }
    
    getItems() {
      return this.items;
    }
}

Here is part of the app.module.ts file which is loading the custom class as a provider:

import { AngularFireModule } from 'angularfire2';
import { AngularFireDatabaseModule } from 'angularfire2/database';
import { FirebaseLoad } from '../app/firebaseLoad';

export const firebaseConfig = {
  apiKey: "API_KEY",
  authDomain: "AUTH_DOMAIN",
  databaseURL: "DATABASE_URL",
  storageBucket: "STORAGE_BUCKET",
  messagingSenderId: "ID"
};

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    MyApp,
    HomePage,
    MapPage,
    ListPage,
    TabsControllerPage
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    IonicModule.forRoot(MyApp),
    AngularFireModule.initializeApp(firebaseConfig),
    AngularFireDatabaseModule,
  ],
  bootstrap: [IonicApp],
  entryComponents: [
    MyApp,
    HomePage,
    MapPage,
    ListPage,
    TabsControllerPage
  ],
  providers: [
    StatusBar,
    SplashScreen,
    GoogleMaps,
    Geolocation,
    FirebaseLoad,
    {provide: ErrorHandler, useClass: IonicErrorHandler}
  ]
})
export class AppModule {}

Try const firebaseConfig without export.
