Roger Allen • May 29, 2021
MJM Sports have achieved a truly impressive deal with the Wessex Football League; a 2-year extension to our existing deal which has been running since 2017. This new agreement will now run until 2025.
Terry Schofield of MJM said "this is a fantastic result for us and a tremendous endorsement of the quality and consistency of service that we have been able to offer all our customers, including the prestigious Wessex Football League. They appreciate that MJM will continue to perform at the same level for them over the coming years.
Despite the difficulties presented by the Covid 19 pandemic and Brexit, MJM have continued to operate throughout all the ups and downs of the last year and we are now looking forward to greater stability in the economy as life gradually returns to some degree of normality".
MJM Sports will continue to be bench wear sponsors for the Wessex Football League together with Kappa, ball provider with Uhlsport and subs boards via MJM Sports.
The Wessex Football League was the first to benefit from this type of sponsorship and Chairman of the League, Nick Spencer said “I am delighted that the league’s relationship with MJM has been extended until 2025. The support the league and our clubs receive from MJM and Kappa for The Respect programme is much valued. The excellent sponsorship of bench wear from MJM has given the league a more professional appearance, the significant financial benefit to our clubs is very much appreciated by them”.
Terry Schofield Managing Director of MJM also commented "It started with Kappa Respect 4 years ago and has gained respect, so much to say that the whole sponsorship from Respect to balls to sub boards to bench wear has been a natural progression and the clubs are as much part of this as we are . I must say a few words about our team - design, decoration and dispatch all help with the success of this deal, here’s to the next chapter".
Dave Bandell Kappa's UK Sales Manager commented “Kappa in conjunction with MJM sports are delighted to extend our relationship with the Wessex league. The new extension to 2025 on bench wear products highlights Kappa’s commitment and also proves what a great job MJM Sports have done implementing the deal. We look forward to working with both parties and continuing to build on an already successful partnership”

New Milton Town are Velocity Wessex League Division One champions for 2024/25. The Brickmakers came from behind at Hamworthy United to claim a 3-2 victory amid late drama at the County Ground on Tuesday night - Brad Snelling with the title-winning effort at the death. It's been a huge turn around in fortunes at the M.A. Hart Stadium, with the New Forest side finishing nineteenth only 12 months prior. Our congratulations to all at New Milton Town, who make a return to Step 5 for the first time since 2012/13.
AFC Portchester have won the Velocity Wessex League Premier Division title following their 1-0 victory at Cowes Sports on Tuesday night. Marley Ridge's strike on 78 minutes proved to be decisive for Gav Spurway's side, who will grace Step 4 for the first time in the club's relatively short history.
