Broadlands AFC: Kyle Evans is a representative and current player at Broadlands AFC – a popular senior Saturday League Team who play in the Bridgend District League with home games at Newbridge Fields,Bridgend.
The club has been running since 2008 and since being formed Broadlands can now boast being one of the most successful teams in Bridgend after winning every trophy possible in their short history.
The club is proud of its achievements and the hard work of a lot of people connected with it which has led to on-field success.
However, there are many expenses connected with running the club who rely for funding solely on its fundraising events and the support of local businesses.
Kyle is kindly asking if anyone would be interested in sponsoring Broadlands AFC.
The major expenses for the club is pitches fees for both teams (First and Seconds) and also the cost of training facilities. It is hoped that this is something you could consider helping us with.
In return for your sponsorship,of course, the club would promote your company by wearing the company logo and name on the club shirts, training gear and also match day gear.
Sponsors would also get advertised on social media pages and club website. Matches are well attended by local supporters and an increasing number of spectators of the local community. Any help would be appreciated.
