Southport Football Club has announced shirt sponsorships with Birkdale Insurance Group, Volare Restaurant and MTC Truck & Van Rental

Southport Football Club is delighted to announce three kit sponsorships for the upcoming 2025-26 season.

Commercial Manager Darren Court said:

“I am delighted to have three committed sponsors in Birkdale Insurance Group, Volare Restaurant and MTC Truck & Van Rental all invest in our vision at Southport FC by having their brands on our shirts ahead of the new season.

MTC Truck & Van Rental have agreed to continue our commercial partnership for the next three seasons by way of the sponsorship of the Popular Stand coupled with the sleeve sponsorship of our kits.

“Onofrio Maimone from Volare Restaurant has vastly increased his commercial partnership with us going into the 2025-26 season, with the restaurant’s branding featuring on the back of our shirts. In addition, an area of the Blowick End will now be known as ‘The Volare Terrace’.

Birkdale Insurance Group have always been regulars at Haig Avenue and I am very proud to now have the brand emblazoned on the front of our shirts throughout the 2025-26 season.

“We thank them all for their commitment to our wonderful club!”

Mark Hopgood from Birkdale Insurance Group said: 

“Having grown up watching Southport FC, I am absolutely delighted we’ve been able to secure this deal! Under new ownership and a new manager, what an incredibly exciting time to further consolidate our exciting commercial relationship and be the shirt sponsors for the new season.

“At Birkdale Insurance Group, we firmly believe that local football clubs like Southport FC are vital pillars of our community. They bring people together, inspire younger generations, and create a sense of belonging and pride that enriches our lives. 

“Our commitment extends beyond business – we’re proud to stand behind the Sandgrounders during this new chapter and we look forward to a brilliant season ahead.”

Onofrio Maimone from Volare Restaurant said:

“We’re very proud to be supporting our local team, Southport FC. We believe that partnership is the key to growth and success.”

Adam Smith from MTC Truck & Van Rental said: 

“MTC Truck & Van Rental are thrilled to be sponsoring Southport Football Club for the 2025/26 season. We’re proud to support such a passionate club and community, and we look forward to a successful year together both on and off the pitch!”

Southport Football Club Chief Operating Officer Andy Burgess said:

“On behalf of everyone at the Club, I’d like to thank all three companies for their support and commitment to us. We’re entering a new era in lots of different ways, and our Technical Kit Supply agreement with Macron is one of the exciting announcements we’ve already made.

“The strength of our commercial relationships is key to our ongoing development both on and off the pitch, and this engagement from Birkdale Insurance Group, Volare Restaurant and MTC Truck & Van Rental to become our front, back and continue as our sleeve sponsors respectively, strengthens our ever-growing links within the Southport community and allows us to proudly promote these organisations alongside the world renowned Macron branding.

“We’re excited to go into the new campaign with these local businesses by our side and we hope it represents the start of an exciting new period at Haig Avenue.”
