As part of its continued push into the teamwear and ball market, Uhlsport has announced two major league sponsorships.
The German football brand has agreed terms with two leagues based in southern England that comprise a combined total of over 500 teams.
From the 2010/11 season The Hellenic League, covering Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Middlesex, Oxfordshire and Wiltshire, will be known as the Uhlsport Hellenic League and all teams will play with Uhlsport match and training balls.
The North Wilts Youth and Minor Football League will also play exclusively with Uhlsport balls and all competing teams in both leagues will be offered exclusive team offers via Uhlsport partner retailers in the region.
Commenting on the two deals, Paul Sherratt, Uhlsport UK country manager, said: “As our business expands, we are looking to aggressively attack the grass roots football market, and these two deals provide an excellent launch pad for us to talk to other leagues across the country, penetrate the teamwear and ball market, and give our retail partners a stronger demand for Uhlsport products.
Any retailer interested in taking part in this promotion should contact Uhlsport on 08448 849861.
