One of Gedling borough’s oldest football clubs has scored a deal with a new sponsor
Gedling Miners Welfare today announced a new sponsorship deal with
Keepmoat Homes, the UK’s leading homebuilder for first time buyers and also the firm behind the Chase Farm development.
Gedling Miners Welfare FC which was founded 100 years ago has received support as part of the home builder’s commitment to support local community projects around the former Gedling Colliery site which it is currently redeveloping.
The club hope the funding and support of Keepmoat Homes – which includes new kits and signage, will help the club, which is a founding member of the East Midlands Counties League, attract more people from the local community to come and support the club throughout the season.
Vic Hulme, Chairman of Gedling Miners Welfare Football Club said: “Not only is this a huge benefit to us as a club but also the local community.
“Everyone is really looking forward to working in partnership with Keepmoat Homes during the season.”
Shaun Fielding, Regional Managing Director at Keepmoat Homes said: “We’re delighted to be able to partner such a historic grassroots football club which over the course of the last 100 year has won not only trophies but has played a pivotal role in the community.”
To commemorate the new sponsorship package Keepmoat Homes was presented with a framed shirt for its showhome at its Chase Farm development by the club earlier today (January 23).
