The only all-female football club in Kent has hit the back of the net with a new sponsorship.

Gravesham Girls & Women’s Football Club’s under-16s team has been backed by leading heating, plumbing and air movement materials supplier TG Lynes.

The team, which plays in the Kent Girls/Ladies Football League Under 16 Division Three, has received a smart new home kit carrying the TG Lynes logo on the front.

Team manager Terry Brown said: “We are very grateful to TG Lynes for this significant sponsorship, which has enabled us to buy much-needed new kit for our under-16s. The girls are delighted.

“All the players pay subs but we try to keep costs as low as possible so it is as inclusive as it can be. We rely on the support of the local community to continue to thrive as a club and it is gratefully received.”

Based at Culverstone Recreation Ground, Gravesham Girls and Women’s Football Club is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

The club runs three youth teams at under-14, under-15 and under-16 level, as well as a senior women’s team.

Terry added: “We strive to provide girls with the opportunity to play competitive football at a family-friendly, all-inclusive club. We currently have 100 players signed up to play, which is fantastic.”

Andrew Ingram, managing director of TG Lynes, said the business was pleased to support a sports club within its operating area.

He said: “Gravesham Girls & Women’s Football Club is a fantastic volunteer-led organisation that has been offering sport in the area for more than two decades.

“We’re delighted to be able to help them and I hope the girls enjoy their brand new kit.”

Operating primarily across London, the South East, East Anglia and the Midlands, TG Lynes stocks industry-leading brands and supplies thousands of products, including valves, steel and copper tubes and fittings, press systems, composite and plastic plumbing, drainage solutions, support systems and tooling. An extensive plant hire service is also available.
