The Ashburton-based company have again contributed a substantial sum to the club and this year their financial contribution has been earmarked to purchase new netting for the outdoor practise facility at Moor Road.

Regular users of the nets will know that the perimeter netting has become torn and several holes in the nets mean that balls can occasionally fly from one net into the other, or out of the net area altogether! The new netting will allow the club to complete the refurbishment of the nets, started in 2017 and funded previously by a CrowdFunder campaign.

The club are delighted to have Stonehaven on board for another season and the junior playing shirts will continue to carry the Stonehaven logo.

Also signing up for another season are Senior team shirt sponsors Pavey Group and Kitsons. An expanded sponsorship deal for 2018 means that all new senior playing shirts (mens and womens) purchased from Devon County Sports will carry the two company logos.

Finally for now, Dainton Park have renewed their advertising board at the club whilst discussions are ongoing with other ground advertisers including Complete Estate Agents and Southern Timber.

Any local firms interested in sponsoring Ipplepen CC in 2018 should contact Chris Partridge on 07887 513 800 to discuss the range of options available.
