We are proud to announce we have extended our sponsorship deal with the Nottingham Lions by a further 3 years.
Solutions has been the headline sponsor for Nottingham Lions for the past three seasons and the new deal will see us continue until the end of the 2019/20 season.
We will see the Solutions logo feature prominently on the teams playing jerseys and training gear, as well as in the clubs promotional materials and website, as part of the deal.
Our Managing Director, Iain Barker, said: “At Solutions, we believe that sport plays an important role within the community, especially with the younger generation. It is very important for us to work with the community and be involved in fundraising activities and raising awareness for good causes. We’ve been involved with ice hockey for a number of years and felt that Nottingham Lions was a club with which we have a strong affinity and was a worthy cause to be sponsoring, so we are delighted to be on board for at least three more seasons.”
Nottingham Lions is the senior team of the Nottingham Ice Hockey Club. Solutions have also been strong supporters for the Nottingham Panthers.
Its aim is to develop young players from within the club’s junior system and give them a platform to move on to a higher level in the game. It currently plays in the Laidler Conference of the National Ice Hockey League.
Former players include Marc Levers, Rob Lachowicz, Tom Norton and Ollie Betteridge, who have all gone on to represent Nottingham Panthers in the Elite Ice Hockey League, as well as the GB national team.
Nottingham Lions head coach Matt Bradbury said:
“We’re delighted to have Solutions back on board for another three seasons and its great working with Iain and his team. It means we can start next season with strong foundations and a good base of players. We have yet again just had another productive season and even after working with these players for so long now as a group, we have found so much more about the way our team operate and how we will alter our training methods to best suit the strength of our young team.”
