It’s with great pride that we can today announce that locally managed IT company Modern Networks will be sponsoring, not only the men’s, but the women’s Hitchin Town FC teams going into next season. Having opened their first office in the town in 2004, the Managed Service Provider has been a great advocate for grass roots sports in the town with Managing Director, James Tizzard, being a season ticket holder.
Modern Networks announced as newest sponsor of Hitchin Town FC
On the importance of the sponsorship, Tizzard commented “It’s a great pleasure to be able to sponsor the Hitchin Town FC teams going into their new season. As a resident and Hitchin Town supporter for many years, it means a great deal that Modern Networks can sponsor local organisations just like this that contribute to building not only a stronger community but supporting grass roots football in our area. The team at Modern Networks and I wish the club and all of it’s teams all the best for the upcoming season”
Since 1865, the affectionately named ‘Canaries’ have played at Top Field against teams from across the South from Barnet to Bristol Rovers. Now with a women’s and a youth team, the club has been Southern League winners twice and supports a range of local charities.
On what the sponsorship means to the club, Paul Sprague, Vice Chairman, Hitchin Town FC said “The support of the local business community is so important to us. We are delighted that Modern Networks have joined us as a key sponsor and taken up several opportunities to showcase their brand to the thousands of Hitchin Town FC supporters coming through the gates of Top Field each season and following our digital content online. Huge thanks to James and all the team at Modern Networks for supporting the club as we continue to grow.”
Not only will supporters see the Modern Networks logo adorning the women’s playing kit and the men’s training kits in the new season, but fans can also catch glimpses of their brand throughout the stadium.
Modern Networks are proud to be supporting Hitchin Town Football Club going into their new season and very much look forward to partnering with them in developing grassroots and step 3 football throughout the area.
“Very best of luck with the season ahead to all the Hitchin Town FC teams! I’m delighted to be an extended part of the Canaries and will certainly see you at the Top Field for a few drinks very soon” – James Tizzard, Managing Director, Modern Networks.
