One of Walthamstow’s leading junior football clubs has received boost after netting the support of a prominent local business.
Leading heating, plumbing and air movement materials supplier TG Lynes has backed Walthamstow FC’s Under-14s.
The youngsters will proudly wear the name of TG Lynes on their shirts for the 2022/23 season as they bid for glory in the Eastern Junior Alliance League.
Club secretary Richard Williams said: “We’re delighted to have a prestigious company on board in TG Lynes.
“Funding is extremely tough for amateur sports clubs. Any money we can bring in is a huge boost and allows us to offer first-rate football opportunities to young people in the area.
“The boys will be proud to wear the TG Lynes logo on their shirts.”
Walthamstow FC, in association with Ryan FC, has produced a string of professional footballers over the years, most notably Premier League striker Dwight Gayle.
TG Lynes, which this year celebrates its 110th anniversary, has a long history of supporting charities, sports clubs and community groups close to its Enfield headquarters.
Laura Janaway, marketing manager at TG Lynes, said: “We’re delighted to be supporting Walthamstow FC’s Under-14s.
“It’s a fantastic club which provides quality grassroots sport for hundreds of young people across various age groups.
“TG Lynes is committed to operating sustainably. Of course, that means reducing our carbon footprint, but it’s also vitally important to us that we play a positive role in the local community.
“We are looking for further opportunities to support more good causes in the coming months.
“Good luck to Walthamstow FC Under-14s for the season.”
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 and support systems and tooling. An extensive plant hire service is also available.
