We are delighted to finally reveal the new Taunton Town FC home and away shirts for the 2020-21 season.
The impressive new kit signifies the launch of our exciting new partnership with major sportswear company Joma and leading sportswear and equipment supplier Somerset County Sports, as reported in May. As announced recently, Portt & Co will be the main sponsor for the home shirts while our Stadium sponsor Cygnet Health Care will be displayed on the away shirts. Both shirts, which are a limited edition kit for one year will also feature the Love Musgrove logo, the official charity of Musgrove Park Hospital, on the back, with £5 being given to the charity for every shirt sold.
Mark James from Joma commented:” Joma are delighted to be able to renew the kit deal with Taunton Town FC and Somerset County Sports. The new 2020/21 shirts look great and we believe the club’s supporters will love them. We look forward to seeing the players and fans in both kits, and we wish the club good luck with the season ahead.”
James Brice from Somerset County Sports remarked:” Somerset County Sports are delighted to be working with Taunton Town FC and Joma. The new 2020/21 Taunton shirt looks great, with lots of exciting new partnerships, and we are looking forward to the people of Taunton lining the streets in Claret! Keep following our social media channels for a new exciting “supporters’ range” coming soon. SCS were previously on the shirts during the amazing FA Cup run of 2016 so hopefully we can have another amazing run this season!”
Chairman Kevin Sturmey said:” Who would have thought our one year new kit launch would be happening in September, not July, for two reasons? Covid-19 has completely changed the landscape for all live spectator sport and the uncertainty about the forthcoming season meant a later order than normal! However, the kits are looking fantastic and are in production as we speak but timescales are difficult to predict at present. Working with Mark at Joma and James at Somerset County Sports has been so easy for me as they are both so professional and dedicated to providing an outstanding service to Taunton Town.
James at SCS has made a great suggestion and an exciting opportunity for fans to take ownership of their own range of clothing. During these very difficult times for all of us I know the future is in safe hands with Joma and SCS.”
Club Shop Manager Lee Derrick told tauntontown.com:” In my role as Club Shop Manager my favourite time of year is always the release of the new shirts. I am absolutely delighted with the new partnership with SCS Ltd and Joma and this new collaboration has delivered instantly with two fantastic shirts. Both the 2020/21 Home and Away Shirts will soon be available to order which can be done in a number of ways. If you are at the game against Chippenham this Friday, you can pop into the Club Shop (or on subsequent match days) to place your order. Alternatively email us at clubshop@tauntontown.com or order via SCS Ltd on their website. Full advance payment is required to guarantee your shirt; this will be £45 for Adult or £40 for Juniors and don’t forget that £5 per shirt is being donated to Love Musgrove.”
