Chorley have secured their second major new sponsorship deal of the summer.

Outdoor equipment specialists Discover.co.uk have signed an agreement to become the club’s new shirt sponsor for the 2010-11 season.

The new strip, which has been specially designed by Umbro, was worn by the players for the first time in Friday night’s friendly with Preston North End.

News of the deal, which is undisclosed but described as ‘significant’, is another welcome boost for manager Garry Flitcroft, and it comes just a fortnight after The Chorley Group were unveiled as the club’s new main sponsor.

Flitcroft said: “This is great news for the club.

“To have two commercial partners on board of the calibre of Discover.co.uk and The Chorley Group is fantastic, and it can only help us in our quest to get to where we want to be.”

Flitcroft is also delighted the club have forged a partnership with top kit manufacturers Umbro, who replace Eternity as the official supplier.

He added: “All young kids want to wear Umbro or Nike gear these days so hopefully the decision to switch to Umbro will make our kit more appealing to the younger generation.

“It’s a good looking kit and, as a manager, you want your players to look the part when they run out.”

Discover.co.uk are the UK’s premier leisure retailer and specialise in selling caravans, motorhomes and camping equipment.

They have five stores across the country, including one in Chapel Lane, Coppull, near Chorley.
