SPONSORSHIP UPDATE

Rugby Oldham Supporters Trust are pleased to announce their sponsorship of Lee Kershaw for season 2019. We wish him a successful season in Oldham Roughyed colours.

This follows on from our Sponsorship of Ben West for the 2018 season.

In addition, this year we have sponsored Roary’s Pride, the new Junior Roughyeds Supporters section, in our ongoing quest to see the young supporters of the town gaining the “Roughyeds Habit”

It is essential to get new young blood watching the team as this will be the support of the future.

Our previous sponsorships include sponsoring the entire Reserve side when the club ran an ‘A’ team in 2008. In 2009 we sponsored the locally raised players in the Reserves who were not professionally contracted. We also provided the run-out tops worn by the Reserves.

After the demise of Reserve grade football we offered finance to assist with terracing on the Whitebank Road side of the stadium.

Meanwhile, we continued to sponsor the Ben Powell Trophy awarded to the Man of the Match in the Standard Cup Final, provided medals for Oldham Schools Finals day and trophies for the Amateur Club Challenges at both senior and junior level.

We have an ongoing commitment to sponsor 2 matches at Junior Finals day for the amateur clubs and continue to run a Man-of-Steel award in conjunction with Jos. Parr (Alco Ltd.) who generously put up a £500 prize for the outstanding player in Oldham amateur rugby each season.Until the demise of the Oldham Chronicle we provided a 1/8 page advert covering amateur league fixtures every weekend. We now try to maintain this publicity through Twitter and Facebook
