Blyth Spartans sign the Armed Forces Covenant

Blyth Spartans are delighted to announce their partnership alongside the Armed Forces Covenant.

The Covenant is a promise to treat those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces, and their families, with fairness and respect in the community, economy, and wider society.

The agreement was signed at the Catterick Garrison military base and this means that Blyth Spartans will be associated with the military personnel across the region.

This partnership opens up the door for ex-military personnel, and veterans to participate at the club on a voluntary basis and beyond.

All Armed Forces personnel will receive a 10% discount on the following items:

• Tickets
• Clubshop items
• Room Hire
• Hospitality

Alongside this, there will be a pitch-side board which states "Armed Forces Covenant proudly supporting those who serve."

On the partnership, the club stated: "Blyth Spartans AFC pledge to stand by our Armed Forces, honour their service, and support their wellbeing by joining the Armed Forces Covenant.

"We are committed to upholding the values of the Armed Forces Covenant, and ensuring our military personnel receive the respect and care they deserve for their sacrifices in protecting our nation."
