Warwick-based technology company Apteco have kindly become a “Friend of Thunderbirds”. Club Sponsorship Manager Martin Phillis remarked “It is wonderful to have the backing of another great local business. We really appreciate their support, which will help towards the costs of additional training kit needed due to the Government’s rules about sharing equipment.” 

Apteco’s Sarah Liu explained that “Apteco is always happy to support the sports clubs that our employees and their families are involved with. When training resumes following the COVID-19 lockdown, we appreciate that costs will rise to ensure the girls are in a safe environment and following the social distancing guidelines. Therefore, I’m pleased to nominate Thunderbirds in my employer’s sponsorship list at this difficult time. Many of my colleagues have young children and, I believe, the existence of a club like Thunderbirds is very important as an inspiration for the younger generation.”

We are pleased to announce that Prime Studios are supporting our club by becoming “Friends of Thunderbirds”.

Prime Studios are a bespoke private gym a short distance from Stratford in a lovely rural location. In addition to bespoke personal training, they offer sports therapy, pilates, yoga, and nutrition advice.

Owner and director Chris Tipping explained why they wanted to get involved with Thunderbirds:   

We are eager to support the local community, in particular local youth teams. With child obesity being so prevalent, as well mental health issues, we feel it is paramount to promote exercise and educate on health and wellbeing at a young age. Activities which become habitual lead to long term behavioural changes and this needs to be encouraged. Thunderbirds are a fantastic institution for young girls to instil these ideals, and Prime studio looks forward to our collaborative relationship in 2020.

Government guidelines place strict rules about sharing equipment, so Prime Studio’s generous support will help us purchase additional training kit to support the new socially distant training regime.
