National housing and regeneration specialist Keepmoat Homes is proud to be the new sponsor of a local rugby team.

The company has donated £1,000 to the Bradford Dudley Hill Devils under 13s rugby club to provide 25 new playing kits, including shirts and shorts, which have been re-designed to incorporate the Keepmoat logo.

After contacting hundreds of local businesses, the Dudley Hill Devils, who play in the Yorkshire Junior Rugby League, were struggling for support until they got in touch with Keepmoat Homes at the end of last year.

Steven Graham, Partnerships Manager at Keepmoat Homes, said: “I was forwarded an e-mail from the rugby team and replied with our support the very same day. It is a shame that the Dudley Hill Devils did not receive any financial support from other Bradford-based businesses to purchase a new playing kit and we were more than happy to assist. We will be heading along to some of their home games this season to show our support and meet the whole team.”

Kieron Stewart, Head Coach of the Dudley Hill Devils, said: “I would like to say a huge thank you to Keepmoat who have sponsored the team and have really helped us to be able to continue playing a sport that we enjoy. The players are so excited to wear their new kit”

Keepmoat is currently developing 63 new homes comprising of two and three bedroom properties, of which 54 will be offered for sale with the remaining nine provided as affordable housing on their exciting new development at St John’s Court in nearby Fallowfield Gardens, Bradford. Construction work began on the site in September 2012 and prices will start at £93,995. For more information, please contact Keepmoat on 07792 103028 or visit keepmoat.com.
