Grimsby Town Foundation are pleased to announce the Mariners Trust as our Emerging Talent Centre’s training kit sponsor for the 2024-25 season.

We launched the Emerging Talent Centre in January of this year in a bid to support Women’s and girls’ football and its continued development in the region.

The deal sees the Mariners Trust logo on the training kit of the 49 ETC participants that access elite-level coaching in the area through the Foundation.

On the opportunity to sponsor the ETC, Chair of the Mariners Trust Brian Nicholson said, “The Mariners Trust have a strong junior section with 100s of members, so the opportunity to support nearly 50 girls within the Foundation’s ETC carries that work on.

“We all know how powerful the Club’s badge is, so to have these players now kitted out with training wear is great to see.”

On the announcement, ETC Lead Coach Ben Challen said, “It’s excellent to be supported by the Mariners Trust and have their logo on our training kit.

“It allows the players to have a feeling of belonging at the sessions and removes some of the barriers that we had previously seen at training sessions, with players staying within their social groups from their grassroots teams.

We are always looking for more ways to support the women’s and girls’ game in the area.

If any additional sponsors are interested in supporting our ETC, please get in touch by emailing office@grimsbytownfoundation.co.uk or calling 01472 696481
