Newry City AFC were delighted to host the latest instalment of the Newry Chamber’s Business Tour series. The breakfast event took place on Friday morning at the Showgrounds.

The event itself was well attended and allowed NCAFC to showcase both ground redevelopment plans as well as future plans for Newry City Academy.

Newry City AFC Chairman Martin McLoughlin commented “I would like to thank those who took time out of their busy schedules to attend and I trust that they enjoyed what may have been their first visit to The Showgrounds and the breakfast which was kindly sponsored by John McCollum. We plan to host similar events in the future as we aspire to build partnerships with the business community as well as voluntary and charitable sectors in the Newry Mourne and Down District Council area.”

Newry City AFC are delighted to launch our new home jersey for the 22/23 Danske Bank Premierhsip and welcome on board our new main shirt sponsor HMT Group.

Commercial manager Gary Wilson said “Having achieved promotion to the NIFL Premiership, in doing so ensuring that top flight football continues to be played in the area, we are pleased that the Club can offer promotional exposure opportunities to local businesses. Our club relies heavily on the support of the local community, be that from fans coming through the turnstiles or by businesses investing in our club. We see both avenues as critical to the growth of our brand. Therefore we are delighted to unveil HMT Group as our shirt sponsor for the forthcoming season. We now look forward to a successful partnership with HMT Shipping and are grateful to the Directors of HMT Group, Jarlath and Gerard Magee for their support.
