Local Football Team Sponsored by JunctionNINE Retail Park

St Helens under 11’s Penlake Celtic football team has secured sponsorship from JunctionNINE Retail Park, following a winning run of games and promotions since its recent formation.

The team, based on Sutton Road, St Helens, has retained all of its players from the last season, in addition to recruiting two new talented players as it goes into the next campaign. The sponsorship will give the team, which includes players from under privileged backgrounds, the support it needs to go on to achieve further success.

JunctionNINE Retail Park, previously Alban Retail Park, has recently rebranded and is marking the change with the sponsorship of Penlake Celtic. The owner of JunctionNINE Retail Park, The Derwent Group, has attracted several new tenants in recent months and is celebrating four new store openings this month on the back of the re-brand campaign, following a £9 million transformation of the development. The Derwent Group is also in detailed negotiations with a further three retail and leisure brands.

Vinnie Colquitt, Coach of the under 11’s Penlake Celtic team, said:

“This sponsorship is excellent news for the lads on our team who love playing here, and take great pride in the success they achieve on the field. This sponsorship from The Derwent Group will tie in very nicely with our recent promotion and the re-branding of Alban Retail Park into JunctionNINE Retail Park.”

James Maule-Ffinch, Senior Asset Manager at The Derwent Group said:

“We are proud to support the fantastic work of the Penlake Celtic football team and wish them all the best for their next campaign. With the launch of our charitable trust, The Albert Gubay Foundation named after our founder, shopping at our retail parks now means that consumers directly contribute to the local community.”

“This marks a major milestone in our ongoing development of JunctionNINE Retail Park, where we have sought to bring together an exciting mix of brands to form one major retail and leisure destination for Warrington and its surrounding catchment areas.”

Joint agents for JunctionNINE Retail Park are CSP and Petch & Co.
