The day job might be about manufacturing corrugated board and cases, but we’re also committed to supporting the local communities in which we operate.

As a result, we are delighted to announce three new sponsorship agreements for grassroots junior football clubs close to where our three sites, Coalville, Preston and Larkhall are located. All have been suggested by our team members who have children playing in the teams and understand first hand the huge impact sponsorship can have on helping such teams and clubs prosper and continue to provide this valuable community asset.

Our Coalville site will be sponsoring Coalville Roosters, an Under 8’s side which is part of Coalville Town Ravens. Playing in the Leicester and District Mutual Football League Under 8 Level 5, the team will look super smart in their away kit which we have provided.

 In Preston, our team are sponsoring BaC/EE under 14’s football team. Recently promoted to the Premier Division of the Central Lancashire league, we’ve supported them to purchase zip up training tops, ideal for chilly winter evening and also as a jacket when travelling to away games and enjoying presentation events.

Meanwhile, in Larkhall, we’re delighted to support East Kilbride youth team and have supported them to be able to purchase winter jackets for the team.

Dominic Drew, Group Managing Director, Board24 commented; “Community based sports clubs play such an important part in integrating local people into their communities and we are particular advocates of those clubs for children which help them to enjoy sport and form lifelong friendships from an early age.

“Being part of a team is about so much more than just sport – it’s about social skills, learning how to be coached, accepting direction, and supporting teammates; all of which are vital skills to be able to succeed in the workplace, not just on the sports field.

“We wish all three of our teams lots of luck for a happy and successful season, and look forward to hearing about how they are getting on.”
