BISHOP AUCKLAND FOOTBALL CLUBCOMMERCIAL & SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Welcome
Opportunities for a brighter future with the Two Blues!I would like to welcome you to the Bishop Auckland FC commercial brochure for 2017-2018.
Our whole philosophy is changing when it comes to running an operation which we hope will be deemed‘truly first class’. The football club now serves a far greater demand from its supporters and from the wider
community, and as such, Bishop Auckland Football Club will become a fully operational hub to people inthe Bishop Auckland area and further afield.
We now operate largely as a semi-professional club playing at a much higher level, and while thatremains our aim on the pitch, off the pitch there is little to suggest we cannot offer a similar, (and in manycases, better) level of services than clubs already competing in leagues higher up the footballing pyramid.
We can compare our services with other clubs but our philosophy differs. When it comes to buildingrelationships with our supporters, our sponsors, our communities and our friends from business, we prefera dedicated approach to their needs. We are proud of the changes we are making; proud of the first-class
stadium we have, and that’s why we would be delighted to welcome you to Heritage Park.
In this commercial brochure, you can view the packages that we offer, allowing you to choose from a widerange of traditional and new availability to entertain your customers, friends, family and future supporters
of the club. Social media is also a huge part of the world today and with that development comesopportunity, and we have a range of options tailored to the digital market. From website sponsorship to
YouTube advertising, we feel we have the package for you that will provide a platform for you to enhanceyour brand. Our match day hospitality and commercial packages offer all guests and business partners a
first-class experience, tailored specifically to your needs.
We firmly believe that Heritage Park will be the place to be this season for entertaining and hopefullywinning football, and I am confident that our hospitality choices will offer great value for investment during
the forthcoming campaign.
Discover the wide and full range of packages Bishop Auckland Football Club can provide to you, yourguests or your business. Please feel free to contact me at [email protected]
Thank you for your continued support.

In line with the Club’s forward thinking, we are looking for similar minded businesses who see the
value and huge potential of advertising using state of the art LED technology.
LED technology is a revolutionary new concept in stadium advertising, combining the flexibility and
impact of LED screen technology with the high visibility of advertising at a football stadium.
Using the latest in LED technology, your brand advertising can be brought to life, with high-impact,
unmissable moving images either inside and/or outside the stadium.
