The Fans Choose PUMA
PUMA® and Genesis Sports announce Technical Kit partnership with Stirling Albion FC for the next three seasons
The club has recently been purchased by the Stirling Albion Supporters Trust and since The Trust launched its “Buy Stirling Albion” campaign in May 2009, it has registered over 2300 new members from all over the world including Cristiano Ronaldo and Andy Murray. Deals of this nature once beyond a club like Stirling Albion are now very much on the table for this ambitious side.
The club spokesperson Paul Goodwin said: “We are absolutely delighted to have reached an agreement with PUMA. With its worldwide heritage and strong brand values, we believe it is a perfect fit for our aspirations, both on and off the field.”
The new kit will be launched at the first home league game of the season on 14th August where the Division 2 Championship flag will be raised. Replica tops and other leisure wear will be available to purchase via a pre order system at www.stirlingalbionfc.co.uk from 5th August.
The contract will see PUMA supply the club with their Technical and Replica Kit and Trainingwear for the next three seasons. Roger Harrison, PUMA UK Marketing Director comments: "We are looking forward to embarking upon an exciting new chapter with Stirling Albion FC. This will provide PUMA with an even stronger exposure throughout Scotland, and allow both Stirling Albion FC & PUMA to further develop their brands within football together.”
Genesis Sports are PUMA’s Licensee for PRO Teamsports for the UK & Ireland and the launch of The Bino’s PUMA 10/11 Home and Away Kit sees the club join the portfolio of PUMA contracted clubs including; Tottenham Hotspurs, Newcastle FC, Sheffield Wednesday, Cardiff City, Reading FC, Bristol City FC, Leyton Orient FC, Bath Rugby Union and England Rugby League.
