Macron win top prize of sponsorship draw

Sportswear giants Macron picked up the top prize in Hinckley AFC’s sponsorship prize draw to win their logo on the back of our first team shirts for the coming season.

The teamwear and merchandising firm were pulled out of the hat first in the draw conducted by management trio Courtney Belford, Joe Conneely and Ryan Conneely before our pre-season friendly match at Anstey Nomads.

They’ll take their places on the back of the first team’s shirts, while Commercial Vehicle Trading will feature on the shorts after winning second prize.

The shirt sleeves will feature one of our oldest club partners, The Printing Works Hinckley, on one sleeve and one of our newest, Super Star Sport Midlands, on the other.

Director Scott Barnes said the draw received impressive support from local businesses. He said: “It’s fantastic to see the business community continuing to support Hinckley AFC even during these difficult times.

“Moving into the borough has certainly raised our profile locally and the exposure that we can give has been recognised by both existing and new sponsors.

“We thank them for their support and look forward to welcoming them to our games during the forthcoming season.”
