Partnership & Sponsorship Opportunities

PARTNERSHIPS

We pride ourselves on our unique marketing-led approach which has been developed over 20 years in the front line of sales and marketing at large and small businesses & clubs.  With a 91% partner retention we believe this is the result of our marketing-led approach.  We listen, adapt and implement integrated solutions to suit an ever-changing environment.  We are not about selling an advertising board or a programme page because without a marketing solution these will not work.

Whether it’s kit sponsorship, Dug Outs, Shorts, Stands and Suites, we tailor each partnership to suit your brief and budget.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

As an employer of more than 2,000 people and home to around 15,000 students, the University of Northampton has a major positive impact on the town – as does Northampton Town Football Club, which has been at the heart of the community for well over a century. So it is incredibly fitting both organisations enjoy such a close relationship.

While the University takes great pride in having its name on the front of the Cobblers’ shirts, there’s so much more to our partnership. The club offers our students the opportunity to enjoy work experience and internships, plus the chance for students to take over the club for a match, once a season. Two of our graduates have progressed to full-time positions with the Cobblers, while current students have the chance to play on the hallowed Sixfields turf during Varsity.

Quite simply, together we are all #ProudToBe

 

Anne-Marie Kilday - Vice Chancellor of the University of Northampton

“The last decade has seen many changes at the University and to the town’s beloved ‘Cobblers’. Since the start of the partnership, we have moved to our new home at Waterside in the heart of the town and, just last month, NTFC’s fantastic footwork saw them promoted to the Sky Bet League 1.

“As time has gone by, our partnership has gone from strength to strength, and a testament to that is the number of our students who have gone on to career success following placements at the Club. We look forward to continuing our ‘top of the league’ partnership with NTFC over the coming months and years.”

Nick Rees - Director, Jackson Grundy

Jackson Grundy’s relationship with Northampton Town Football Club began 14 years ago.

"We commenced our first of six seasons as shirt sponsor and club partner. Our involvement was initially driven by David Jackson’s affinity to both the town and its football club, and has subsequently been sustained by the consistent value provided by the commercial and marketing teams who are always proactive, innovative and helpful. For us this relationship is a highly effective and pleasing way to support our local club and community, whilst also benefiting from the significant reach and exposure afforded to us by the partnership."


Sam Lee – Sales & Marketing Director, dbfb

“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.”

LCS’s CEO and Managing Director have always been big Cobblers fans. 

“It's been a dream of ours to sponsor the club” said CEO David Lawrence.  “We’ve spent many a time at Sixfields on match days and when the opportunity presented itself as a business to get involved we made a decision to do so”.   They joined as brand sponsor to the First XI team's shorts and this season increased their support to becoming the official “North Stand Sponsor”.   “We chose to increase our support with the club as the relationship has worked for us as a business.  They are  local,  we’ve secured business from our association with them, and important to us, we’ve been hugely impressed with their efforts within the Community and the impact this has had. We are looking forward to building on our relationship with the Cobblers”.  LCS have been established since 1996,  based in Northampton covering a wide geographical area providing Office & Commercial cleaning and are corporate members of BICSs obtaining accreditation with Altius and Safe Contractor plus the National Academy of Crime Scene Cleaning.
