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”

The Wessex League is encouraging its member clubs to explore the opportunities available through the Premier League Stadium Fund , which continues to invest in improving football facilities across England and Wales. Having invested more than £226 million into over 1,000 clubs , the Premier League Stadium Fund is helping transform the non-league matchday experience by supporting projects that enhance facilities for players, volunteers and supporters alike. Funding is available for a wide range of projects, including floodlights, spectator accommodation, pitch improvements, changing facilities, barriers and other essential infrastructure that helps clubs meet ground grading requirements and provide a better environment for their local communities. Clubs considering improvements to their facilities are urged to engage with the Fund at the earliest opportunity to discuss their project and determine eligibility. Investment in facilities not only strengthens clubs on matchdays but also helps secure their long-term future, enabling them to grow participation, improve accessibility and continue serving their local communities for years to come. For further information and to begin an application, visit the Premier League Stadium Fund website or speak to your County FA or League representative for guidance.

AFC Stoneham have started the season where they left off the last - collecting more silverware in the form of the Wessex League Charity Cup, following a 3-1 success over Hamble Club. Proceeds from the occasion supported the Geoff Smith Legacy Fund - supporting young children in local communities on their football journeys, set-up in memory of the long-serving AFC Stoneham Chairman who sadly passed away in May. Kian Towse and Braydon Douglas gave the hosts a 2-0 advantage into the interval, before Harry Hamilton pulled one back for the League Cup winners without around ten left to play.
