MATHERN Vagabonds Veterans FC have unveiled their new sponsored kit.

Player-manager Jim Edwards and his team welecomed Amanda Cook who runs Chepstow-based osteopathy practice Country Osteopaths.

"We were looking for a new kit sponsor and had written to a lot of businesses and Amanda replied," Edwards said.

"We are all very pleased with the new kit and Amanda's sponsorship is crucial to us."

Amanda is equally happy to be able to help the Vagabonds who boast a number of Welsh Veterans internationals and play in both the Bristol and Welsh Vets leagues.

"When Jim contacted me, I thought it would be a good idea to sponsor them," Amanda said.

"Although I specialise in paediatric osteopathy for babies under four weeks old, I also mentor a sports masseur and thought the association with the Vagabonds would be an interesting one.

"I have sponsored a junior team in the past so I know how important sponsorship is for sports clubs and I also know the advantages for sponsors. I hope the association with the Vagabonds will be mutually successful."
