Newland Homes Park kicks off a new chapter for Thornbury Town FC. The football club has secured a significant three-year sponsorship agreement with us which will see the club’s ground named Newland Homes Park from the 2025/26 season onwards.
Supporting one of the largest amateur sporting clubs in South Gloucestershire
The new partnership supports one of the largest amateur sporting clubs in South Gloucestershire. Thornbury Town FC is a 3-Star FA Accredited club with nearly 400 players across six adult teams, including a newly formed ladies’ team, as well as a comprehensive junior section covering the under six age group through to under 16s. The thriving club welcomes around 200 supporters on 1st Team match days.
Our support will fund comprehensive branding across the ground, including welcome signage, dugout graphics and new displays in the recently refurbished clubhouse. The sponsorship package also includes branded kit for the men’s 1st team and a football plinth designed to hold a trophy that, with luck, will be lifted repeatedly in seasons to come.
Long-term commitment to supporting local communities
The sponsorship aligns with our long-term commitment to supporting local communities. We are one of the South West region’s leading developers of zero carbon homes, powered by renewable energy instead of fossil fuels. These homes help homeowners cut carbon emissions while also achieving far lower energy bills thanks to their A-rated energy efficiency.
The new partnership with Thornbury Town FC launches as we prepare to begin construction at Post Farm, north of Thornbury, where the company intends to bring forward a new neighbourhood of 32 high-quality, zero carbon new homes, including bungalows. 40% of the new development will be affordable homes.
‘Clubs like this are a vital part of the fabric of a place’
Tom Sheppard, Design Director at Newland Homes, said: “Thornbury Town FC is an incredible community asset. As a former Town player myself during the club’s Championship season 2017/18, and then watching my son Jack also represent the club more recently in the Hellenic League, I’ve experienced first-hand the importance of the club to the town of Thornbury. Clubs like this are a vital part of the fabric of a place, giving people of all ages the opportunity to come together and get involved. Supporting the wider community is important to us at Newland Homes, so partnering with Thornbury Town FC feels like a natural fit.”
Club representatives say the sponsorship marks a huge step forward in supporting both current operations and long-term ambitions, particularly as the club continues to grow and meet FA National League facility standards.
Chris Walton, Commercial Manager at Thornbury Town FC, said: “The club is extremely proud and excited to announce this agreement with Newland Homes. It is imperative to the continued success of the club that we can obtain commercial sponsorship from companies like Newland Homes. They have been supporting the club for several years and this new agreement takes their support to the next level.”
