A MAJOR Vale of Clwyd firm has continued to back sporting clubs in the region.

Ruthin-headquartered Jones Bros Civil Engineering UK has thrown its support behind Corwen Football Club by sponsoring the under-10s team.

It is the extension of a relationship that started back in 2018 when the company helped provide two sets of shirts for Corwen Under-sevens.

Connections between Corwen FC and Jones Bros include staff who play in senior teams, as well as employees’ children, who are members of junior academy sides.

In recent years, Corwen FC, which can trace its history to 1877, has built a well-regarded junior academy for both boys and girls, and the backing received from Jones Bros has helped provide important equipment for the U10s.

Hefin Lloyd-Davies, contracts director for Jones Bros, said: “Supporting the communities where the company operates and its employees live, is very important.

“It is terrific that Jones Bros has been able to continue helping Corwen, who provide important opportunities to young people in the area.

“Team sport is such an effective way of helping children develop skills and confidence, as well as build friendships.”

Corwen U10s manager Huw Jones was thrilled to see Jones Bros renew its support of the club.

Huw said: “A strong family ethos is important to us in Corwen and at the football club, so being sponsored by a family-run company like Jones Bros is fantastic.

“To have Jones Bros assist the club like they have done since 2018 is wonderful, and hopefully the relationship will flourish for many more years.”
