GCC is looking for sponsors

GCC is looking to gain interest from potential sponsors from within and around the club. We will be offering two packages: 1 year at £300 or 2 years at £450. For that, the sponsor would gain a sign-board mounted on the perimeter fence of the 1st team pitch, and they would be added to the club website and mentioned in club tweets on Twitter. This is simple and affective way for us to bring essential funding into the club and so we encourage all club members to do what they can to seek support – possibly from their employer. If you wish to discuss any of the above in further detail, please call club Chairman Paul Feavearyear on 07795 271033 or 01603 715756.
