Thornaby FC is delighted to announce a significant new agreement with Ward Hadaway, naming the UK Top 100 law firm as a Premier Partner.
This major partnership is set to provide crucial backing for the club’s development both on and off the pitch.
With a local office on Teesdale Business Park and others across the country, Ward Hadaway’s backing will help accelerate Thornaby FC’s ambitions.
As part of the agreement, Ward Hadaway’s branding will become a key feature across Thornaby FC’s very own Teesdale Park, the club’s home ground on Acklam Road, set-up.
Ryan McKnight, Thornaby FC’s Chief Operating Officer, said: “We are making big strides both on and off the pitch as we continue to grow Thornaby FC into a unified ‘One Club’ for the whole community.
“Strengthening links with the local business community is absolutely vital to achieving our vision. Welcoming a firm of Ward Hadaway’s stature and expertise is a massive endorsement of our progress and commitment.
“This support will be invaluable as we aim for success across our senior teams and bolster our crucial grassroots infrastructure.”
Ward Hadaway is an independent, full-service law firm with a combined headcount of nearly 600 across its five regional centres, including established offices in Leeds, Manchester, Newcastle and Birmingham.
The firm is known for combining regional strength with national influence, a drive mirrored by Thornaby FC’s own ambitious development plans.
Ward Hadaway, which prides itself on being ‘Straightforward, Respectful, and Ambitious’, established its presence on Teesdale Business Park earlier this year through a merger with well-regarded The Endeavour Partnership, reinforcing its commitment to the region.
The firm provides quality, commercial legal advice designed to support clients in achieving their objectives strategically and profitably.
Phil Edmondson, who leads Ward Hadaway‘s sports sector group, said: “This partnership is a wonderful fit. We are proud of our presence in Teesside, and being a Premier Partner of Thornaby FC allows us to actively support a club that is developing at all levels.
“As a firm, we have built a really strong national reputation for supporting ambitious clubs across a wide variety of sports. Grassroots football is at the heart of the community, and we are particularly excited to back Thornaby FC’s ambitious plans for both the men’s team in the Ebac Northern League Division One and the women’s team in the North East Regional Women’s League Premier Division. We look forward to a successful relationship.”
The agreement ensures Thornaby FC has a powerful corporate partner in its corner as it strives to become one of the best independent clubs in the region, mirroring Ward Hadaway‘s own commitment to excellence.
