Thornaby FC is thrilled to announce a significant new partnership, naming Engineering, Recruitment & Services (ERS) as a Premier Partner in a deal set to play a crucial role in the club’s ongoing development both on and off the pitch.
The agreement sees the Tees Valley-based specialist agency and engineering projects company commit to supporting Thornaby FC’s vision as a unified “One Club,” with ambitious plans for success across all levels – from its strong grassroots base to its senior teams competing regionally and nationally.
As part of the partnership, ERS branding will become a key fixture across the Teesdale Park set-up and feature prominently across all club media inventory, confirming a strong, visible link between the local business and the football club.
Ryan McKnight, Thornaby’s chief operations officer, said: “Working closely with the local business community is fundamental to our strategy for growth
“Having a leading Tees Valley firm like ERS join us as a Premier Partner is a massive show of confidence in the ‘One Club’ vision we are building.
“This kind of support helps us strive towards providing the best environment for all our teams, from the grassroots level up to our senior sides. We look forward to a successful, mutual partnership with ERS as we both look to shine on and off the pitch.”
Since launching in 2006, ERS has established itself as the go-to specialist agency in the Tees Valley, boasting a wealth of experience in engineering, construction management and recruitment services.
The company prides itself on delivering high-quality results that make it easy for its clients to succeed, a reputation built on an unrivalled knowledge of the local industrial landscape.
The decision to back Thornaby FC stems from ERS’s deep roots in the North-East and its commitment to local development.
ERS owners Lee McGee and Adam Casson said: “We are incredibly proud of our deep roots in the Tees Valley, and becoming a Premier Partner of Thornaby FC is a natural fit for ERS.
“This is more than just sponsorship, it’s about investing in the heart of our community. We are excited to support the club’s ambitious plans for growth, particularly as both the men’s team push forward in the Ebac Northern League Division One and the women’s team compete at the top of the North-East Regional Women’s League Premier Division.
“Being part of this ‘One Club’ development at the grassroots level, and providing visible backing for these ambitious teams, is hugely important to us.”
