A WELL-KNOWN family-run Spar convenience store business has signed a three-year sponsorship agreement with Tidworth Town Football Club.

The Connolly family, who run four Spar stores in Tidworth, Ludgershall and Pewsey, have set up the £8,000 sponsorship deal, which is being run by Ellen Rhodes, Sara Connolly and Paula Franklin from the management team at the family’s Tidworth Pennings Road store.

All kit will carry the Connolly Spar logo, and the team’s tea hut will be decorated in red, white and green, like the outside of the Pennings Road convenience store.

All merchandise sold, such as coats, umbrellas and other sporting kit, will also include the Connolly Spar logo.

Paula Franklin said: “Tidworth Town FC runs 10 teams, catering for over 170 children and young adults, and we are immensely proud to be associated with the club.”
