With a new kit design and much needed cash injection, Teddington Rugby Club (TRFC) says it "is really excited to welcome the group of new sponsors to the club for the start of the 2025/2026 rugby season".

Only renewing the kit design every three years, representatives of the club have worked hard to find sponsors that not only align themselves with the club's values of teamwork, respect, enjoyment, discipline and sportsmanship but also have roots in the local Teddington community.

The new sponsors, which were keen to get involved and support the club, are Astir Living, Stadium Support Services, and Fortify Wealth Management.

They join Savills who will also be sponsoring TRFC for another three years.

Speaking about the new sponsors, Simon Davies, Chairman of Teddington Rugby Club, said: "Everyone at the club is delighted to have the new sponsors on board.

"Not only do we have a fantastic new kit, but the sponsors have also given us a much-needed cash injection at a time when our club, alongside all other grass root community clubs, are being hit by the economic downturn.

"Also finding sponsors that truly share our club values has been quite an achievement and we are really looking forward to getting them involved with the club and embedding them in the local community that we are so proud to represent."

Tim Simpkin, Partner of lead Sponsor Astir said of the partnership: "Astir are a very forward thinking business with a focus on creating communities.

"When we heard that TRFC were looking for sponsors we were only too happy to help as we see a real link between our values and goals and those of Teddington Rugby Club who throughout their teams and age groups hold respect, teamwork and enjoyment at the core of everything they do"
