Training provider sponsors Chesterfield FC

UK: Air conditioning and refrigeration training company Technique Learning is to sponsor National League football team Chesterfield.

The training company has signed a two-year contract which will see the Technique Learning logo appearing on Chesterfield’s home and away shirts next season.

Technique Learning MD Mark Crook, a Chesterfield supporter (pictured above), is delighted to have forged the link-up. “Although we are a UK-wide apprenticeship and training provider, Chesterfield is a very special place for Technique Learning,” he said. 

“It is the place where we were established, where we grew and most importantly it is the place we are proud to call our home and the sponsorship of the club emphasises this.”

Chesterfield FC commercial manager Jim Brown said: “We are very pleased to be working with a local company who have an impressive national reputation. Mark is a fan who attends matches, which adds to the appeal.”
