Veezu, one of the UK’s leading private hire taxi technology operators, has announced a sponsorship for the Pride Park Pumas football team in Derby. This new partnership supports the team with brand-new kits for the 2024-25 season in the Derbyshire Girls & Ladies (DGLL) Mini Soccer League.
The sponsorship highlights Veezu's commitment to community involvement, specifically by promoting and supporting local girls’ football through this high-profile partnership.
Pride Park Pumas and Veezu Partnership
The Pride Park Pumas are part of the Pride Park Football Club, a well-established organization with over two decades of commitment to grassroots football. Known for its dedication to providing young players with opportunities to participate and grow in the sport, the club welcomes this sponsorship as a significant boost to its operations.
Veezu’s branding will be prominently displayed on the team’s kit throughout the DGLL Mini Soccer League season.
This effort will help promote the team’s presence in the league. The sponsorship aims to further the development and visibility of girls’ football in Derby, encouraging local enthusiasm and participation.
Community Support and Statements from Leaders
The new kits, introduced at the start of the 2024 season in July, are already being utilized by the team. Pride Park Football Club has encouraged the community to come out and support the Pumas as they compete, fostering a local fanbase for the girls’ league.
As part of the Funded by Veezu initiative, which supports various community projects across the UK, this sponsorship aims to positively impact youth sports and foster greater community involvement.
“We are pleased to sponsor the Pride Park Pumas team and support their league activities. This sponsorship reflects our commitment to contributing positively to the community and promoting youth engagement in sports,” said Sacha Boulis, Regional Marketing Manager at Veezu.
Michael Dean, Team Manager at Pride Park Football Club, added, “We appreciate Veezu’s support in sponsoring the new kits for the Pride Park Pumas. Their contribution helps us continue offering football opportunities for local youth and reinforces our club’s long-standing dedication to the sport.”
