We are very pleased to announce that Transport 29 are the main sponsors of Market Drayton Hockey Club for both the 26/27 season and the 27/28 season!
With Transport 29 already sponsoring our local rugby club, this is another example of us trying to give back and support the community, providing opportunities to young people in the area to play sports which may otherwise be inaccessible.
As part of the sponsorship package we put together, which included additional sponsors who we brought onboard to boost the total offering, we were able to provide the club with 7 x what they were receiving from the previous sponsors. Yes, that’s right… 7 x more! Those additional funds have meant that all club members have received brand new kits, free of charge.
Market Drayton Hockey Club (MDHC) currently run 2 x men’s teams and 1 x ladies’ team. With a brand new astroturf pitch due to be completed in the town in early 2027, the club hopes to expand this to include more sides, including a junior team which would likely come about as the local school puts the sport back on the curriculum.
As part of the sponsorship, Harry built a brand-new website for the hockey club. You can check it out here: Market Drayton Hockey Club
Those who know the Transport 29 history or either Jordan or Harry directly will already be aware of the connection they have with the club, and the reason this sponsorship deal means so much to them personally, but for those who don’t, here’s the story. The 29 in the business name comes from the shirt number worn by their late brother, Thomas, who was 2nd team goalkeeper and captain at MDHC before his passing in December in 2012. To this day, Jordan remains involved at MDHC as a player and has inherited the number 29 shirt.
