Every fan has their favourite player and, ultimately, the players are what the fans come to see. With the management team, they bear the burden of responsibility for bringing success to the club.
Here at Shildon, the players are the embodiment of the team spirit that runs through the club and the relationship between the players and fans here is very special.
Last season the team performed magnificently on the park culminating in winning the Durham Challenge Cup at the Stadium of Light. To associate your name with a member of the Shildon Football Club squad is to associate yourself with hard work, fair play, high performance and team spirit.
We offer the following opportunities to sponsor your favourite member of the squad:
Home or Away Shirt £ 30
Invitation to the end of season party.
A photograph taken of you and your chosen player.
Your name listed against the player profile in both the matchday programme and on the official website.

Why not come along and watch the coaching staff put the players through their paces before our game this Tuesday at home to Spennymoor.
There will also be opportunities to meet, ask questions and have your photo taken with the players and management.
Season tickets will be on sale as well as the ability to renew your Supporters Club membership. The supporters club will also be taking names for the bus travelling to watch the pre-season match at Carlton on the 20th July.
