The deal running until May 2020 see the firm’s logo on the front of all of “The Sports” shirts from the Under 7’s squad to the 1st XV and in a nice twist to the deal both parties celebrate anniversary’s in the 2018/2019 rugby season. Bridgend Sports RFC will also engage in Knights Browns charity work by donating kit through the Bridges to Prosperity Charity.

Andrew Eilbeck, Divisional Director of Knights Brown’s Wales Division said:

“Knights Brown believes in supporting local communities and our two year agreement to sponsor Bridgend Sports Rugby Club provides an opportunity for us to help young people in the borough get actively involved in community sport. As a local business, we are delighted to mark our 10th anniversary by sponsoring Bridgend Sports who will also be celebrating their 80thanniversary this year. We wish all the teams the best of luck and look forward to supporting them through the season.”

Bridgend Sports Chairman Andrew Murphy is very pleased with the deal and said :

On behalf of all players, mini, junior, youth and seniors I would like to thank Andrew and Knights Brown for their support. As we enter our 80th season to be able to have over 300 people playing for the club and all wearing the same kit is amazing. There is a positive buzz about the club and a great feel of inclusion from all involved.  We are a community based club with an ethos based on inclusion. To have a sponsor from the area with local ties who understand and help us to support this is important. Once again, on behalf of all at “The Sports” I would like to says “Thanks”.

The New Kit will be worn for the first time at the Tondu EVS 7’s on the 28th of July and new 1st XV Captain Greg Thomas said “It’s great to have kit from Raging Bull and shirt Sponsors in Knights Brown. As A Bridgend Boy I’m chuffed that they are local and really give back to the community through partnerships like this, it really helps with the development and growth of our club which is a club for the community”
