Bromley seek sponsors

Bromley Football Club are urgently seeking sponsors before their Ryman League Division One South campaign gets underway on Saturday 16 August, writes Stephen McCartney.

Match sponsors for all 23 league and cup matches are available at £80.00 per match. Sponsors receive two free tickets to the game you are sponsoring, boardroom hospitality, complimentary match-day programmes and listed in the club's sponsors page in the match-day programme for the whole season.

Individual players kit sponsors are also available at £50.00 per player for the whole season.

Like all football club's, Bromley appreciates the support from their sponsors.

Companies such as Freelands Plumbing Heating & Tiles, Sainsbury's, Nat West, MSB International, Ainsley Morgan and Kall Kwik support the club financially and the club are looking for local and national companies to join them.

Visitors to Bromley's Hayes Lane ground witness the many brightly covered advertising boards around the pitch, and the sponsored Bromley Times terrace.

To purchase an advertising board around the pitch costs £500+vat (for a single board) or £900+vat (for a double board) for one year.

Bromley's Hayes Lane home is not only home to the Ryman League club, but to Go Travel Kent League double winners, Cray Wanderers. Women's football is also played at the ground, in the form of Charlton Athletic ladies, who play Liverpool at Hayes Lane on Sunday 10 August.

Bromley's under 18's MUSH Kent Youth League side will also be playing at Hayes Lane this season, mainly on Sunday's.

Club photographer, Mark Avenell, takes photographs of Bromley home matches. Take a look at his website www.avenellphotos.com and you will see the many advertising boards in the back ground of his action shots.

Any companies wishing to support Bromley Football Club should telephone Stephen McCartney (players and match sponsorships) on 07979 418 360 or chairman Jerry Dolke (advertising boards) at the club on 020 8460 5291.

Meanwhile, Bromley are staging an open day at Hayes Lane on Sunday 10 August from 10am-12noon. Supporters and the local community can meet manager Stuart McIntyre, the players and the youth team section at the Hayes Lane club.

This is followed, at 2.00pm with Charlton Athletic ladies team playing Liverpool women on the Hayes Lane turf.

Bromley's game against Tilbury has been switched to Hayes Lane on Tuesday 5 August (7.45pm) due to pitch problems at Tilbury's Chadfield's home. Grays Athletic come to Hayes Lane on Saturday 9 August (3pm). Bromley's final warm up match is at Romford on Tuesday 12 August, when Bromley look to defend the annual Wembley Cup.
