A tech consultancy firm has bolstered its support for an East Lancashire women’s football team as the club seeks more sponsors to aid their campaign going forward.
Sundown Solutions continue to show their support for their local community by extending their sponsorship of Accrington Stanley Women FC, remaining front of shirt sponsors.
Sundown is already back of shirt sponsors; board sponsors; and has premises at Accrington Stanley; sponsor a boardroom at Accrington Stanley Community Trust; and is heavily involved in grassroots football.
Accrington Stanley Women provide a motivating and welcoming environment for more than 200 women and girls to play football and train regularly.
They are also making waves in their leagues, with many fantastic individual players as well as team performances - with one even getting an England call up.
Heath Groves, chief executive of Sundown Solutions, said: “We've always pledged as a company to give back to the communities we live and work in.
“Women's football is a fantastic way to build confidence, resilience and teamwork, and the talent pathway they have through the age groups is bringing amazing results. We're happy to support them."
Sami Smithson, chair of Accrington Stanley Women, added: "We're really grateful for the support of Sundown Solutions, we're a club completely run by volunteers and even kit costs are huge with over 200 players.
“Sponsorship is currently available for the back of shirts if anyone is able to help.
"Sponsorship helps the sustainability for the club, which means we can help more women and girls to achieve their goals in sport.
"We're currently fundraising to help our players travel overseas and compete in the prestigious Dallas Texans International Girls Cup in Texas, USA, at the end of March, which will achieve their dreams of playing in another country.
“All sponsorship will be gratefully received, and if anyone can help with costs they can contact us on enquiries@aswomen.org."
