Taunton Town Football Club is pleased to announce another main sponsor who has agreed to support the club for the 2012/13 season. Somerset Pumps who supplied the club’s irrigator pitch watering system in 2011 have agreed to sponsor the youth team’s training kit for the forthcoming season which kicks off with an FA Youth Cup match away to Chard Town on Tuesday 4^th September. Chairman and Chief Executive Kevin Sturmey said: “I am very pleased we have managed to secure Somerset Pumps as the youth team’s training kit sponsor and thank Phil Champion who has continued to support the club after becoming a sponsor last season.”

Somerset Pumps are one of the reasons for the pitch improvements at Wordsworth Drive; as part of a sponsorship deal in 2011 they supplied an irrigator which allows watering at any time of the year in conjunction with the rainwater harvesting the club have invested in.

Director of Somerset Pumps Phil Champion added: “We have been delighted to supply an irrigator to the club to help improve the Wordsworth Drive playing surface and sponsoring the youth team’s training kit further cements our relationship. We have been working with Taunton Town since 2011 and would be happy to advise any club wishing to investigate pitch watering systems; please visit our website somersetpumps.com for more information”
