Selco gliding in to support Coventry Phoenix
Posted by: electime 24th March 2022
Coventry Phoenix women’s ice hockey team will be getting their skates on in their quest for success in 2022 after securing a new high-profile sponsorship.
The Phoenix, who play in the Women’s National Ice Hockey League Division One South, will be backed by leading UK builders merchant Selco Builders Warehouse this year.
Selco, which has a branch on Austin Drive in Coventry, will be the main sponsor of the club which has suffered with interrupted seasons due to coronavirus restrictions over the last two years.
Zoe Vince, who plays in goal and manages the committee at Coventry Phoenix, said: “We are thrilled to have secured sponsorship from a major national company such as Selco.
“We look forward to representing them on the ice and hope to enjoy a long and successful partnership.
“The last couple of years have been very tough for everyone associated with the club. Games have been few and far between and securing funding has been difficult.
“We are a very inclusive club, with players aged from 15 to 55 from all backgrounds, and see ourselves as a big part of the local community.
“We play teams from across the country so there is a financial burden and the Selco sponsorship will make a huge difference.”
The Phoenix play their home games at Planet Ice Coventry.
Selco Coventry branch manager Eddie Johnson said: “It is always exciting to support projects, organisations and sports teams from the local community and we are looking forward to our link up with Coventry Phoenix.
“It’s a popular club in the city who are flying the flag for Coventry at a national level and we will be following their progress closely.”
With hundreds of trade brands always in stock, Selco’s 72 UK branches are firmly focused on helping tradespeople complete their jobs as quickly and effectively as possible.
As well as offering trade services, Selco also has a strong digital presence including Click & Deliver and Click & Collect services.
