Bishops Cleeve Football Club sport brand-new kit thanks to local housebuilder

- 12 Dec 19

Bishops Cleeve Football Club stepped out in style recently thanks to a local housebuilder which donated new tops to the under eights team.

Bovis Homes donated £500 to the club, and the tops were debuted at a Gloucestershire district tournament.

Sharon Nash, marketing manager in Bovis Homes’ Western region, said: “With Bovis Homes’ Western region office based in Bishops Cleeve, it is wonderful to be able to give back to the local community here. The new tops look fantastic and we wish the team the best of luck this season.”

Ben Walsh, coach for the under eights team, said: “Our team of under eights started as under fives, and during this time we have been searching for a sponsor locally. So now having a company as reputable as Bovis Homes get involved with us has been amazing!

“The boys look so smart in their new training kit and were really proud to step out onto the pitch in their new gear in front of their family. It really helps boost their confidence and has also kept the boys warm in the cold weather! It's really encouraging to find such a large company willing to give back to the local community."

Bovis Homes has many exciting developments in the region including Oaklands in Hunts Grove, Millfields in Cam, The Avenue in Moreton-in-Marsh plus a new development coming to Twigworth soon. Find out more on the Bovis Homes website.
