Ivybridge Town Football Club received a boost from some new supporters this week – thanks to Barratt Homes.
The housebuilder is currently creating homes at its Lucerne Fields development nearby and has announced a sponsorship deal with the club.
“We’re delighted to be associated with Ivybridge Town FC,” said Barratt sales director Sara Parker.
“It is very important to us that we support local sports teams, clubs and other community organisations in areas where we are building new homes.
“Local football clubs are incredible important, in terms of developing young players and providing sports facilities for those nearby.
“Ivybridge Town FC is no exception, and we are delighted to be funding a new away strip for the team. Fans of the club will also see our brand around Erme Valley and in the matchday programme.”
Brian Howard from Ivybridge Town FC added: “The club are delighted to be associated with Barratt Homes and their new development.
“As a Community Charter Standard Club it is very pleasing to see developers supporting their local club. We wish them all the best in their project.”
