Chesterfield Champion proud to sponsor local football team
Wingerworth JSA FC U11 Wolves (better known as Wingerworth Wolves) has kicked off the new football season in style this September. The Under 11s team has had its training and away kit sponsored and supplied by Chesterfield Champion Sanitaryware Supplies Company.
The North East Derbyshire team, which plays at Hunloke Park School, is in the North Derbyshire Youth Football League. The team is now in its sixth season will be setting the pitches ablaze – both home and away this season, in its bright orange and black strip all proudly bearing the Sanitaryware Supplies name.
John Mason, Manager of the team, said:-
“We’re very grateful to the Sanitaryware Supplies Company for sponsoring the kit. The sponsorship means the kids can feel a part of the team and has given them an identity. The kit will also double as an away kit so it will be great help for building our reputation.”
Andy Dukelow, Director of the Sanitaryware Supplies Company, who is passionate about young people and sport stressed the importance of encouraging young people to take up and participate in sport, saying:-
“It’s great to be in a position where we can help the local community”.
“Sport is a very important part of growing up. It not only keeps you healthy but allows you to develop communication skills. Youth football plays an important role in this and gives young people skills that will benefit then throughout their life. I hope that by sponsoring the kit for ‘The Wolves’ we are helping the players really feel part of a team and will encourage more young people to get involved with this great club.”
For the first time, Wingerworth Wolves’ league matches will be both home and away. Home matches are played on Saturday at 10am and everyone is welcome to come along and support the team.
