I am delighted to welcome you to our sponsorship opportunities for season 2023/24.
Whitley Warriors are a club steeped in the traditions of British Ice Hockey and respected across the UK.
We are excited for the season ahead and believe we can, with your help make the Warriors a force on and off the ice. As we embark on this exciting journey and the following information will outline a number of ways you can help us.
From shirt sponsorship to our prestigious club sponsor we value all our sponsors equally and aim to give them value for money and the chance to be part of our winning team.
Whitley Warriors is a name known across the UK and we aim to wear that name with pride and want your company alongside us. We wish to work with the local community and schools, aiming to introduce young people to ice hockey and a healthier lifestyle through sport.
This is very much the start of our journey, one which will see the best British talent given the chance to blossom and one built on strong foundations.
I am truly excited at being Head Coach of the Warriors and look forward to working with your business.
