As of the 2024/25 season, Circuit is proud to announce we will be Bristol City Panthers Player of The Match Sponsor.
The Bristol City Panthers is a part of the Gay Football Supporters Network (GFSN) National League, the only national LGBTQ+ league in the world. Furthermore, only the second club in the country formally affiliated with an English Football League (EFL) side in Bristol City.
The club prides itself on welcoming all players and fostering a fun, positive environment where everyone can enjoy football, regardless of experience, ability, sexuality, or gender identity.
This sponsorship underlines our commitment to creating meaningful progress towards equality in football. It also reinforces Circuit’s dedication to supporting both local football and our broader mission of making the sport inclusive and accessible to everyone.
Mark Kirton, Owner of Circuit Hospitality, stated: “As the UK’s leading provider of football hospitality experiences we are proud to sponsor the Bristol City Panthers.
We are inspired by the inclusivity of the Panthers and their shared vision of how football should be.
Our sponsorship reflects our commitment to supporting their mission and helping them make a lasting impact in the community.”
Manager Ross Welch stated; “At Bristol City Panthers FC this season we have been fortunate to receive support in the form of a sponsorship donation by the team at Circuit Hospitality, made with an aim to support the club in providing grassroots football in an inclusive atmosphere to the Bristol LGBTQ+ community.
The donation provided by Circuit Hospitality has been hugely important as the club has increased our football participation this season; continuing our fixtures in the GFSN League, Cup and Shield, but also joining the inaugural South West Pride Football League season to ensure we can offer members of all abilities access to competitive football in a supportive environment”.
The Circuit team was proud to attend their match at The Imperial Sports Ground, showing our support and presenting the Player of the Match award following Bristol City Panthers’ impressive 7-1 victory over the Nottingham Lions. We look forward to continuing our sponsorship and celebrating more successes with the team throughout the season.
