DOUBLE BUBBLE FOR NORTHERN THUNDER

TWO local companies have invested in Fiat Super League Netball Club Northern Thunder.
 
For the third season running, Midshire Business Systems North, who are based in Bredbury, Stockport, in conjunction with Riso UK, are sponsoring the netball stars.
 
The companies’ logos will appear on the Northern Thunder’s distinctive black and yellow strip and will appear at all the club’s home ground – The Manchester Thunderdome – on match days.
 
Said Julian Stafford, managing director of Midshire Business Systems Northern which is a major distributor of digital print solutions: “With the two previous seasons proving to be a great success for us, it was an easy decision to include Northern Thunder in our marketing plans for the next season.

The sponsorship has not only given us considerably better visibility in our key markets such as education and local government but it’s greatly enhanced our reputation in the North West generally. By supporting Northern Thunder and the furtherance of the sport, this activity helps to keep our brand visible in these markets and enables us to ‘give something back’ to the areas which have been key to our success over many years.”
 
And Debbie Hallas, director of Northern Thunder, added: “We’re delighted that Midshire Business System Northern and Riso UK have agreed to continue their sponsorship of Northern Thunder. The fact that many of our matches are televised gives them great exposure and we’re pleased that they wish to contribute to the growth of the club and the game of netball in general.”
