Hull City AFC are delighted to announce that Hull's local airport, Humberside Airport, will be the official sponsor of the club’s new £1m training facility at Mill House Woods Lane in Cottingham.
The training ground, which will be used by the club’s youth and senior players, comprises two full-sized pitches, a gymnasium, state-of-the-art changing rooms, doctor's and physio room.
It will provide the Tigers with a base to train and develop professionally with the same standards as those set at the KC Stadium.
In announcing Humberside Airport as an official partner, Hull City AFC Chairman Adam Pearson, said. “We are delighted to welcome a new business partner to Hull City.
“The deal with Humberside Airport is a really important strategic alliance with the club, and they will become our official naming rights partner for the new training ground and will become involved in the continued development of our Centre of Excellence facilities.
“The training ground is a circa £1 million investment, and we feel the addition of such an important brand as Humberside Airport reflects the significance of the facility.
“The club and Humberside Airport will now work together in order to examine all promotional possibilities at the airport for the benefit of Hull City supporters.
“The launch of the new Hull City credit card and the addition of Hull's local airport to our 6 key existing partners - Kingston Communications, Bonus Electrical, MKM, Ideal Standard, Smith & Nephew and deVries Honda, means the club is continuing to develop off the pitch in order to maintain the momentum on the pitch.”
Robert Goldsmith, Managing Director of Humberside Airport, said. "We are delighted to be associated with the Hull City Training Ground.
“This is a great initiative that will provide a base for both the first team and youth team training and which will no doubt be of real benefit to both the Club and the area.
“I feel it is extremely important to invest in and support our local community and to also demonstrate our real sense of pride in the region. Everyone at Humberside Airport is looking forward to what promises to be exciting times ahead for the Club and are very proud to be Hull City's Airport By Official Appointment!”
