Last updated : 14 April 2014 By James O'Grady

Coventry Jets American Football Team have unveiled new shirts for 2014 and announced a new sponsor.

Coventry are extremely pleased to welcome their new sponsor Travis
Perkins. The company have been supplying building materials to the
trade for over 200 years and are now one of the largest suppliers to
the UK's building and construction industry with a national network of
more than 600 branches.

Head Coach Rickhuss said: "It really is fantastic to get the
sponsorship and support of such a well-known national company. Our new shirts which arrived in the UK last week, are carrying the Travis
Perkins logo on the back of them, look brilliant. The shirt is a
couple of shades darker than last year's blue and will match perfectly
with either our white or blue pants."

General Manager Adam Biggs remarked 'It great news for the club and
highlights the hard work the committee and members are putting into
the organisation in making it as successful as possible on and off the
field. In recent economic times it has been extremely hard for clubs
like ours to gain sponsorship, and so we are very grateful to Travis
Perkins for wanting to support Coventry Jets'.

A Travis Perkins spokesperson said 'We are very pleased to be able
support the Jets as their rebuilding programme to become the UK's #1
team again.'

The first outing of the Travis Perkins shirt is on Sunday April 27th
when the Jets host the Gateshead Senators at the Sphinx Sports &
Social Club, Sphinx Drive. Kick off for the 2014 season opener is
14:30.
