Market Harborough children’s football team scores big with franchisee sponsorship
McDonald’s Franchisee, Glyn Pashley, who owns and operates 26 McDonald’s restaurants, is proud to be the sponsor of the Harborough Town Football Club’s Under-7s. The sponsorship will help support the youth team by funding new kit and training equipment for the current 25/26 season and seasons ahead.
Glyn Pashley and his restaurants have been supporting grassroots football in the local community as part of McDonald’s Fun Football programme for many years. McDonald’s is the longest-standing supporter of grassroots football in the UK and has worked with the Home Nation Football Associations for over 20 years.
The McDonald’s restaurant in Market Harborough also celebrated the new partnership by inviting the Harborough Town Under 7s team down to their local restaurant on Melton Road, for the team to meet their new sponsors.
Local McDonald’s Franchisee, Glyn Pashley, who owns and operates 26 restaurants, said: “Supporting youth football in local communities is something we’re passionate about, which is why we are sponsoring Harborough Town Under 7s at our Market Harborough restaurant. Grassroots football is something we really believe in, and we’re proud to help the team with new kit and training gear. I can’t wait to see them out on the pitch, enjoying the game and growing their love for football.”
Now in its 24th year, McDonald’s Fun Football programme is committed to providing over ten million hours of free football opportunities to over one million children by 2026. McDonald’s Fun Football sessions will take place across the entire UK with the next wave starting in June. To find a Fun Football session local to you visit www.mcdonalds.co.uk/funfootball.
