Scottish Women’s Football teams up with RJM Sports and uhlsport to provide match and training balls for every one of its member clubs’ senior teams.
Under the new three-year deal, RJM Sports becomes Official Ball and Trophy Supplier to SWF, with Uhlsport the chosen manufacturer to fulfil this agreement.
The partnership allows Scottish Women’s Football to make a significant contribution to bringing down costs for clubs at a time when other costs are rising and ensure parity in quality of footballs being used across the senior leagues.
RJM Sports will also provide trophies/medals, ribbons and staff kit for the SWF staff and board. Not only is there a financial saving to the teams by the agreement undertaken, but the deal will also see SWF clubs receive a discount for further purchases on kit, equipment, footballs, goalkeeper gloves and trophies/medals.
Commenting on the new partnership, Scottish Women’s Football CEO Aileen Campbell said: “At Scottish Women’s Football we are acutely aware of the rising costs for clubs and this exciting new partnership allows us to provide uhlsport quality match balls and training balls to every single team in our senior leagues. Our thanks go to Robert at RJM Sports and to Brian Hutchinson of uhlsport for providing us with a fantastic service and for their commitment to supporting the grassroots women’s game in this way.”
RJM’s Robert Marshall said: “We are delighted and excited to partner with one of the largest and fastest growing organisations in Scotland with Scottish Women’s Football, as the Official Ball and Trophy Supplier. Although we already deal with several teams within the SWFL structure, we feel that this agreement can help not only promote ourselves but significantly improve the support for the women’s game across the country.
Uhlsport lead for Scotland and Northern Ireland, Brian Hutchinson, said: “uhlsport as a brand are honoured to be working with Scottish Women’s Football, and together with RJM Sports, we are bringing quality products and service to a fantastic organisation and looking forward to an exciting future with all partners.”
