We decided to take a different approach in order to gain sponsorship ahead of the new season, taking into account the ongoing financial implications on businesses currently, with each of the 20 squares on the card available for £25.

The response from local businesses was fantastic, with all 20 squares selling out in just over two weeks, allowing us to complete the draw last week.

The winning number selected by a random online draw was number 11 - meaning we are delighted to confirm that Ripple Recruitment will be our new U13 sponsor for the next two years. The company logo will be displayed on the front of new match shirts for both our U13 Bisons and Buffalos teams.

Ripple Recruitment are a specialist IT recruitment agency, founded in 2018, after David had previously been helping businesses hire the best talent for over 15 years. The Reading based company have made service excellence, communication and customer experience the basis of their core values.

You can find out more about them by visiting their website at www.ripplerecruit.co.uk.
