Port of Blyth Become Front of Shirt Sponsor of Blyth Spartans

Thursday, 22 May 2025

Blyth Spartans AFC is delighted to announce that Port of Blyth have strengthened their longstanding connection with the football club, by agreeing to become front of shirt sponsor of both the men and women's first team for the 2025/26 season - as well as continuing to sponsor the Jimmy Turney Stand and the club's Player of the Month award.

Port of Blyth is one of the UK's largest Trust Ports with a strong reputation as a leading offshore energy support base, combining commercial port activity with supporting the regional economy and local community. The Port of Blyth have been in partnership with Spartans for nearly 30 years and for the first time in that long and successful affiliation, their logo will be emblazoned on the green and white stripes, as well as the new away kit and on the shirt of our new women's team. Port of Blyth's award-winning training arm, Port Training Services, will feature as the front of shirt sponsor.

Martin Lawlor OBE, Chief Executive of Port of Blyth, commented:


I am delighted to further strengthen our longstanding partnership with Blyth Spartans AFC — a relationship between two organisations that are very much at the heart of the local community. We look forward to supporting the club's continued progress on the pitch and celebrating success in the season ahead.

Blyth Spartans chairman Kevin Miles added:

Building on the historic partnership between the Port of Blyth and the football club, this new enhancement of our relationship will underline the bond between Blyth's two most iconic entities: the Port and the Spartans. Our teams will wear the Port of Blyth's logo with pride.

The club would also like to announce that we will be revealing our home and away shirts for the 2025/26 season later today.
