Hassocks “We’ve sponsored the club for around five years now having first become involved when Mark Dagliesh asked for materials for the ground and club. Good luck to the club for the new season.” Sussex & Kent’s Favourite Independent Builder’s Merchant Aaron Palmer able to continue to provide a good level of football and some fantastic facilities for people in our area. “The youth section has a lot of teams and we provide them with a safe environment in which to play the game. Our ladies team won the double which was a great achievement and I have to say that they are a really good group who are a valuable part of the club. They’re doing well, working very hard and getting the rewards they deserve. “Our biggest challenge is generating enough money to enable our standards to remain high. Everything costs money to maintain and we don’t have a huge income stream so we have to manage our finances carefully. “Over the next five years our main priority is to continue to provide players with a place to play football. We’re happy playing at the level we’re at and whilst I would love to win the league realistically we’re at the level that we can sustain and have a clear pathway for young players in the local area to come through and play football. Whilst we continue to do that I’ll be happy with the way the club is progressing.” Sussex & Kent’s Independent Builde “I’ve sponsored the club for four years becoming involved through Mark Dalgleish who I have known for many years. I started off sponsoring the training tops and have worked my way up to being their main kit sponsor now. They don’t pay the players so to continue to attract players must be hard, making their huge improvements last season even more impressive. The camaraderie between the players is fantastic and I’m delighted to also be sponsoring the ladies team for next season. The set up is a huge credit to the club and hopefully we can build on that next season. I like that everyone works together to make the club better and would just like to say well done to Phillip Johnson and everyone involved. Good luck for the new season, myself and all my customers are behind you!” Parker Building Supplies is building Sussex and Kent’s future, one brick and block at a time.
