Space extends Gloucestershire Cricket sponsorship

UK: Bristol-based refrigeration contractors Space Engineering Services has extended its sponsorship of Gloucestershire County Cricket Club for a further year.

Space Engineering Services has sponsored the Jack Russell and Mark Alleyne stands at the cricket club’s Bristol County Ground since 2019. It has now extended the partnership for a further year.

The company’s signage is located directly underneath the apartments on the Ashley Down Road end of the ground in the Jack Russell and Mark Alleyne stands – named after two of the Club’s legendary players.

Peter Terry, Business Development & Marketing Director of Space Engineering Services said: “It’s with great pleasure that we continue to support one of the great sporting institutions of the West Country. The Shire has always been a successful side, especially in the one-day game, but has recently been undergoing a period of transformation, both on and off the field, which reflects our own journey. 

“It’s an honour for our name to be associated with stands that carry such legendary names. We look forward to cheering on the team on the company of customers and colleagues.”

Neil Priscott, commercial and marketing director at Gloucestershire Cricket said: “It is fantastic to be able to link up with a market-leading Bristol-based company – which further strengthens our ties with our home city. We thank them for their continued support and look forward to working with them once again this year.”
