Lincoln Net Danwood Sponsorship
This is a meeting of two winning brands and shows the value of ambition. Lincoln Ladies are delighted to announce that the club has secured a lucrative sponsorship deal for the inaugural FA WSL season, with Danwood set to have their logo emblazoned on the red and white shirts for the forthcoming campaign. Lincoln-based Danwood, who will be celebrating their 40th anniversary in the year of the first FA WSL season, are the largest independent supplier of office printing equipment, consumables and associated management services in Europe. The five-figure shirt sponsorship deal will see Danwood strengthen their ties with the local community and will give them some fantastic exposure throughout the highly-anticipated FA WSL season. Lincoln Ladies Chairman Ray Trew said of the deal: “Danwood are one of the shining lights in East Midlands industry and as a local and international success story it is fantastic to have them associated with Lincoln Ladies as we embark on our first season in the FA WSL. “It is only with the support of the local business community and fans from across the East Midlands that we will be able to grow as a club and this deal represents a massive step in the right direction. “I would like to thank Danwood for their support and hope that this will be just the start of what we hope will be a long and mutually beneficial partnership for both parties.” Graham Reeve, Managing Direct for Business Development and Marketing at Danwood comments: “It’s great to be involved with Lincoln Ladies at the start of their professional career. Forty years ago, no-one could have envisaged that Danwood, a start-up company based in Lincoln would, be the size and strength it is today. Lincoln Ladies show the same drive and ambition to be a major player in the national arena, whilst not forgetting the local community in which they are based, which is why Danwood is happy to support them. We wish them every success in the coming season.” Lincoln Ladies Chief Executive Luke Negus-Hill added: “In our search for a shirt sponsor, a key partnership for any football club, we were always keen to showcase the support that we have from the local community and I can’t think of a company that better encapsulates that aim than Danwood. “This deal represents another significant landmark for Lincoln Ladies and puts us in a much stronger position going into our opening fixture of the FA WSL next week.” Lincoln Ladies kick-off their FA WSL campaign at home to Doncaster Rovers Belles on Wednesday, April 13th.
