First team manager Dave Thomas said: “Sponsorship is massive to clubs like ourselves and we greatly appreciate the kind support from Clegg Construction.
“The costs of grassroots football is always rising in regards to league fees, pitch hire, paying officials, and buying kits and equipment. Clegg’s sponsorship has enabled us to buy a smart new kit which will keep the team looking sharp and everyone at the club sends their thanks.”
The sponsorship from Clegg Construction allowed the club to buy 17 full outfield kits and a full goalkeeper strip.
Open to men aged 17 and over, Coundon Nugget FC is a family and community club which regularly holds charity events and is currently supporting Hallie’s Hideaway – a UK charity that provides holiday homes for poorly children and their families to help them make precious memories. The charity’s logo has also been included on the new shirts, alongside the Clegg Construction logo and website.
Michael Sims, MD at Clegg Construction, said: “It is important to the team at Clegg Construction that we support the local communities in which we are working. When we heard that Coundon Nugget FC needed a new strip, we were happy to step in to help, especially when we learned that the football team itself is such a strong supporter of charities and good causes.”
Dave Thomas, who played for Coundon Nugget FC before becoming manager, added: “I would like to thank Clegg Construction and everyone from Cleggs that I have spoken to during the sponsorship process. Everyone has been fantastic and so supportive, with a special mention going to Peter Booth who was so kind to have a chat with me on site at the Woodlands School project and was the cog in getting everything rolling.”
