Severn Sport are delighted to announce that Severn Sparks have agreed to be a sponsor for the Severn Sport Shield & Trophy for the next two seasons – with a view to be a longer term deal.
Founder and former member of Severn Sport, Matt Yates, and his company will be the sponsors of the Player of the Tournament awards for each of the 2024 and 2025 pre-season tournaments. The awards will be presented to the Player of the Final in each competition.
Alongside Cornell & Company, our main sponsor, Severn Sparks will sponsor the 2024 Shield – which takes place at Stonehouse Town next week, as well as the first ever Severn Sport Trophy, for our county’s women’s teams, takes place in early-August.

Speaking about the partnership, our man Ryan Butler said the following:
“It is always great to have Matt on-board with us. Having previously sponsored the Team of the Month, we always said that the possibility of a working partnership is there – it was all about the right opportunity.
With a second pre-season tournament for us this summer, the timing was right as the opportunity of helping spread the word of the work Matt and the guys at Severn Sparks does mirrors up to Severn Sport’s attempts to enhance the reputation of Women’s football within the County.
By having a “his and hers” pair of Player of the Tournament trophies being prepared for the Shield and Trophy, we will be including the Severn Sparks logo on the social media posts – as well as the banners for posts on the website.
A massive thank you to Matt and I am sure this isn’t the last partnership between the two of us!”
