CUMBRIA’S golf team, pictured, received the perfect boost to the new season by securing a sponsorship deal.
Carlisle firm Armstrong Watson Financial Planning & Wealth Management have handed the team a five-year sponsorship deal.
The deal will see all 15 members of the squad provided with elite Galvin Green Performance sports attire, as well as funding coaching.
Paul Dickson, head of financial planning & wealth management at Armstrong Watson, said: "Cumbria Golf and Armstrong Watson both share the same aspirational values - to inspire our team, and invest heavily in personal development and training to ensure we're always at the top of our game. To be able to support CUGC achieve this was a natural decision and we're looking forward to our on-going relationship with the team."
The team got off to a disappointing start in their opening match when they lost 14½-3½ to Lancashire at Seascale on Saturday.
