New sponsors sign stadium deal

Established in 1991, Chesterfield-based DCJ Group Insurance and Risk Management specialise in providing commercial, home and motor insurance policies for customers throughout the UK.

Delighted Gladiators officials told fans on Friday that their new stadium sponsors had paid an undisclosed fee and confirmed that substantial sums were involved.

Expressing his delight and satisfaction, Matlock Town chairman Tom Wright said: “Seeking any kind of sponsorship in the current climate is extremely difficult but to secure one of this size and with an organisation such as DCJ Group Insurance just shows the progress the club has made in presenting itself as a credible marketing opportunity for those in the business community.”

In a statement announcing their partnership, DCJ Group Insurance and Risk Management managing director Chris Breeze welcomed the opportunity to back the Gladiators in the EVO-STIK NPL's top flight over the 2016-17 season.

He said: “We’ve been seeking a way to promote our organisation in the Matlock area through football and we identified the qualities displayed by the club, particularly professionalism and ambition, which sit perfectly with our objectives.”
