Preston Grasshoppers lock in sponsorship from Cavity Extraction
Leading cavity wall insulation removal specialists, Cavity Extraction Ltd, has announced it is now an official sponsor of Preston Grasshopper Rugby Club, providing a generous donation towards its junior rugby tour to the Midlands.
The Leyland-based company’s investment was used to provide new training kits to the 123 children attending the tour, which took place in early May and saw the children play up to 12 games over the long weekend.
As part of the sponsorship deal, Cavity Extraction Ltd will also now have a hoarding on the Club’s first team pitch where it will stay in situ for the next 12 months.
Commenting on the sponsorship, Damian Mercer, founder and director of Cavity Extraction Ltd, said: “We’re delighted to have sponsored Preston Grasshoppers’ junior tour. The Club is at the heart of the community and to see children and young adults in particular enjoying and spending time playing sport is something we are proud to be supporting.
“The new kits look absolutely fantastic and it was great to see the pride on the kids’ faces when wearing them and representing their club. We want to congratulate them all on what was a fantastic weekend of sport, they did themselves and the club proud!”
Preston Grasshoppers was founded in 1869 and has members from across Preston and surrounding areas.
Demonstrating further support to the Club, Damian has recently taken up a voluntary coaching position for its U11s team, in which his son also plays, where he will draw on his vast experience having previously been a rugby coach for Lancashire and North of England’s U15 & U16s teams.
Hugh Duckworth, Mini – Junior Chairman at Preston Grasshoppers, said: “Our junior tour team is aged seven to eleven, so having a smart tour kit is really special for them – it makes them feel confident, proud and professional and it was fantastic to see them wearing their tour kit with pride while having fun playing a sport they love.
Lauren Sinnott, Junior Manager added: “We’d like to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to Cavity Extraction Ltd for the sponsorship and for Damian specifically for his ongoing coaching support – we are incredibly grateful for both.”
