The Hampshire FA is delighted to announce that Southampton based BSA-Regal Group will be its official sponsor from 1 July 2008 for the next four years.

BSA-Regal Group’s companies provide a wide range of services and until very recently had been heavily involved in the design, development and manufacture of its own renowned BSA motorcycles as well as manufacturing and distributing genuine Norton Commando parts.

BSA-Regal Group will receive official recognition as the Hampshire FA's main sponsor and will benefit from naming rights and branding within their new home at Winklebury Football Complex in Basingstoke and associated literature and materials. 

The deal is also linked to our representative football structure and will see BSA-Regal Group as main sponsors of the County’s four competing representative teams at Boys U18 and U16 level and also the Women’s and Girls' U18 teams.

Funds generated through this agreement will enable Hampshire FA to further invest into grassroots football and assist in the delivery of its new four year strategic plan linked to The FA’s National Game Strategy.

Neil Cassar; Chief Executive of Hampshire FA and pictured above (bottom left) commented: “This is a fantastic deal for grassroots football in the County and represents a real coup for Hampshire FA. 

"BSA-Regal Group boasts an excellent business reputation and we believe that our likeminded business objectives will benefit considerably from this agreement.  We look forward to a long and productive relationship with the BSA-Regal Group.”

David Bennett, Group Managing Director of BSA-Regal Group and pictured above (bottom right), added: “BSA-Regal has always taken an interest in the development of young people through sporting activities and we are very pleased to be in the fortunate position to be able to help Hampshire FA fulfil their plans with grassroots football. 

"We believe that Hampshire FA can deliver a best value service to assist us in putting something back into the community from where we earn our living.”
