LEADING BUILDING products manufacturer Forterra is sponsoring the Northants Bowling Federation, including the provision of new shirt logos and banners for its county teams.
The firm which has its head office at Grange Park in Northampton, has also provided £1,000 towards travelling expenses for its Adams, Newton, Derbyshire and Eversley teams which represent the county in national competitions.
The distinctive white and orange kit will be worn by players representing the region in which Forterra has its Kings Dyke brick-making facility in Whittlesey and where several bowlers currently work or have been employed in the past.
Says Tony Mace, Northants president: “We will now have plenty of sponsorship visibility thanks to Forterra’s generosity. The sponsorship will also help towards our transport costs as the county face long trips to compete in national leagues.
“The banners will also be much in evidence when the Northants Newton Trophy team and Newton and Adams individuals, compete in the national finals at Skegness from August 20-26, wearing the newly sponsored shirts.
FOOTNOTE: Forterra is a leading manufacturer of a diverse range of concrete and clay building products. It employs more than 1600 people across the UK across 17 manufacturing centres.
