Matthew Pierce bats for Claygate! |
|||
Matthew Pierce, the well-known local estate agent, has agreed a sponsorship deal worth several thousand pounds to Claygate Cricket club over the next five years. The deal will see an immediate cash boost to the club.
The Matthew Pierce name will be featured on Claygate’s shirts, fixture card and website, and there will be banners around the ground for cricket week in mid summer as well as a number of other selected matches.
Claygate’s president David Milner commented, “It’s great to see the support of a local business. This is a major step forward for us and will have the effect of broadening the impact of cricket in the village bringing benefit on a number of fronts. We had a great season last year winning the Surrey Downs League and this has already stimulated the club considerably. The club is taking a number of other significant steps this summer - starting a third eleven on Saturdays and entering our colt’s side into a local league.
Matthew Pierce said, “ We are delighted to be supporting a local club that already does a terrific job in the community but has the potential to do even more. I hope that some of the money for example will be able to fund equipment for the colts as well as helping the longer-term ambition of refurbishing the Dalmore Avenue pavilion. I hope it will also be a real partnership progressing the growth of the cricket club and the market presence of Matthew Pierce and company within the area” Celebrating the deal are David Milner, Claygate’s president (right) and Matthew Pierce outside the office in Claygate shaking hands on the deal.
