Ryton & Crawcrook Albion Football Club are today delighted to announce a transformative stadium naming rights deal with Blaydon-based Oldhaulage.
The undisclosed five-year sponsorship deal is the largest commercial agreement in the Club’s 54-year history and will see Kingsley Park renamed as The Oldhaulage Stadium at Kingsley Park.
Oldhaulage Director Amanda Old, pictured with Ryton & Crawcrook Albion Director John Thompson, said: “We are excited to become involved with Ryton & Crawcrook Albion Football Club.
“It’s a great club and facility to have in the heart of the local community.
“The newly-named Oldhaulage Stadium is literally at the end of the street where our business started many years ago!
“We wish all the teams the very best for the season.”
Ryton & Crawcrook Albion Chairman Richard Hands said: “In the current economic climate, this is a fantastic multi-year deal for the club, and we look forward to working closely with Amanda and her team at Oldhaulage.
“Our attendances and junior memberships continue to go from strength to strength with record numbers year on year making the club a big part of the Ryton and Crawcrook community.
“Without the support of local businesses and the great work of our volunteers, this wouldn’t be possible.”
The name change will take effect immediately and the first fixture is set to take place on Friday 23rd August 2024, when Ryton & Crawcrook Albion host local rivals Prudhoe Youth Club Seniors in the first Tyne Valley derby of the 2024-25 Ebac Northern Football League Division Two season.
