TO THE PTS ACADEMY STADIUM

Excitement for the 2019/20 season at Northampton Town is high. A new look squad, led by the former Manchester City and England defender Keith Curle has been recruited, and optimism for a good season is in plentiful supply. Win or lose, Northampton Town Football Club are never far from the headlines. Media coverage of the club has rocketed in recent seasons, which included a visit from a star studded Manchester United side in the 2016/17 season of course, a game that was beamed live around the world on Sky Sports. Worldwide coverage is great, but we don’t forget our roots and we are very much made in Northampton. Being a huge part of the local community is very important to the club, and not only does the club’s extensive work in the Northamptonshire community help enrich and improve the lives of thousands, the club has also developed a number of talented young local footballers, with seven local players coming through the Northampton Town Academy to sign professional contracts in the last year. Beyond that, while the beauty of football is that the result can never be guaranteed, one thing we can be sure of is that Northampton Town’s off the field standards are the envy of many up and down the country. In May 2019, the club were awarded the EFL Inside Stadium Entertainment award for the matchday entertainment and experience offered to young families, while a few weeks previously the club had also won the EFL Family Excellence Award for the matchday experience offered to families. Throughout this document you will see in more detail some of the fantastic opportunities that exist at Northampton Town Football Club. Whether you are looking for hospitality, advertising, brand awareness, partnership status or just to support some of the club’s fantastic work, we have something for everyone. With hundreds of players taking to the field under the Northampton Town name each week, from the first team to the under 9s, from the Ladies senior team to the youngest female team, including the multi disability squads, walking football, downs syndrome squads and much, much more, whichever part of the club you choose to support, we can tailor a package to support you.

OUR CLIENTS

“The University of Northampton has been working in partnership with NTFC for over 7 years. This has proved to be a really positive relationship for both our staff and our students. The opportunities the club have provided for some of our students has really enhanced their University experience. Whether that be an involvement with coaching, reporting on the games, getting stuck in to the social media or taking over the running of a home game, our students have had fantastic chances to develop essential skills and to put their learning into practice. “Working with the club is a real pleasure. They get what it is we want to achieve and always go that extra mile to ensure our partnership continues to grow. We also get a tremendous amount of pride from seeing the logo of University of Northampton firmly placed on our local club shirt.”

DEBORAH MATTOCK

“Our partnership with Northampton Town Football Club has opened doors for us to a wider community in Northamptonshire, especially those who love football. Our partnership has helped us create a greater positive impact on local businesses and those looking for employment. It is a great opportunity for us to make the public aware of how we can support the local workforce by upskilling and training, enabling them to learn new skills, gain qualifications, and create better career opportunities.”

MATTHEW JOYCE, CHAIRMAN

“Sheinman Opticians are truly proud to be associated with NTFC.“From the outset of our sponsorship we have been very impressed by the club’s commitment to generate exciting activities for us to be fully involved in their culture and create a real sense of exposure to their many fans.“Their management team and PR organisation provide an ideal platform for a fruitful partnership; a win win relationship we are pleased to endorse. Join us and ‘see’ for yourself.”

JOHN SHEINMAN, CHAIRMAN

“It’s been a pleasure working with the NTFC commercial team and supporting the club throughout the last few seasons. “I cannot fault their commitment and we have benefitted significantly from this relationship so much so that we’ve increased our investment & relationship with them for the next 3 years.”

NEIL SMITH, OPERATIONS DIRECTOR

“We decided to partner with NTFC and in particular sponsor their development teams as supporting youth is a value prevalent within dbfb. As a local business we want to support the club at the centre of our community but this had to deliver a return on investment. From the outset they understood our requirements and strived to ensure this was most definitely a partnership with mutual benefits. In particular, we were looking for B2B introductions and we are delighted that not only has the club delivered on this, but we have already done business with one of the club’s key partners and the initial investment was a great decision. We look forward to working more closely with NTFC over the coming years.”

SAM LEE ,SALES & MARKETING DIRECTOR

“We have always supported our local sports teams and feel its important to be involved creatively with our services in our Northamptonshire community.

“We look forward to a successful season.”

ROB BLAYNEY, DIRECTOR
