As an official partner of Glamorgan Cricket, the SPAR brand will be prominently displayed on the back of the team shirts, worn by players of Glamorgan’s first team across various competitions. This partnership was launched with the unveiling of the new shirt at the Vitality Blast match on Friday, 31 May.
Sarah Ellis, Group Marketing Director at A.F. Blakemore, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Glamorgan Cricket, a team that embodies teamwork, dedication and passion – values that resonate deeply with our business. This sponsorship allows us to support the team and aligns with our mission to nurture our neighbourhoods through the power of sport.”
SPAR UK’s wholesaler and Glamorgan Cricket will also collaborate on various community engagement activities and skills camps throughout the next two seasons. The cricket team supports its local community and is committed to developing the next generation of cricketers in Wales. This partnership with SPAR UK’s wholesale partner reflects both organisations’ commitment to promoting healthier lifestyles.
