We are delighted to announce Waterman Compliance Services as the official Principal Sponsor of our women’s first team, as part of a deal which will see the Waterman brand on the front of our women’s team jerseys for the remainder of the 2024 season.
Upon signing the deal as Women’s Principal Sponsor, the Larne-based company will become the club’s first-ever front of shirt sponsor which is uniquely dedicated to our women’s first team squad.
Based locally in Willowbank Business Park, Waterman specialises in providing total water hygiene control, water treatment management and other environmental solutions – boasting 30 years of experience within the industry.
Discussing what is a major milestone for the club, Commercial Director Ross Strathearn said:
“Women’s football is growing dramatically year-on-year across Northern Ireland, none moreso than at Inver Park where we have experienced an incredible rise to the Sports Direct Women’s Premiership with our women’s first team squad in recent years.
“As a result of this growth, brands are now recognising the value which it can offer them and we are pleased to be able to announce Waterman Compliance Services as our first-ever women’s Principal Sponsor in what is a major commercial step for the club.
“I’d like to thank Aaron, Lynsey, Ross and the rest of the team at Waterman for their support in this deal and we can’t wait to begin servicing their brand alongside ours throughout what I have no doubt will be a mutually beneficial exercise for all involved.”
Speaking on behalf of Waterman Compliance Services, Managing Director Aaron Black added:
“As a local family business, we already have a close affiliation with Larne FC having had my Dad, my brother Ross and I all representing the club as former players. We are excited and extremely proud to become the Women’s Principal Sponsor.
“The enthusiasm and passion around the town from grassroots straight through to first team level in tandem with the growth and success of both the women’s and men’s teams over the past number of years has been wonderful. It has been fantastic to sit back and applaud first and foremost as fans of the club and now as sponsors.
“We are very excited to offer support to an amazing local and growing brand in Larne FC, and look forward to watching both the women’s and men’s teams from stands this year. We thank the club’s representatives for their smooth and professional launch, with a special mention to Ross Strathearn for his support and care.”
