Kit given

By Central Somerset Gazette | Thursday, October 27, 2011, 11:00

Aspiring young players at a Glastonbury football club have been given endorsement from a UK sportswear brand.

Wessex Youth FC, which has teams ranging from under-6 to under-16, applied for HexxTalent Endorsement earlier this year, and endorsed training kit has now been delivered to the club by the sportswear brand Hexx.

The HexxTalent Endorsement Programme aims to support young athletes, and currently endorses over 150 UK athletes and clubs.

Darren Shepherd, under-12s manager at Wessex Youth FC, said: "Wes are thrilled to be associated with Hexx, and would like to thank them for the HexxTalent endorsement.

"Nearly 250 children and coaches will benefit from training in their high quality kit."

Jack Royle, brand development manager at Hexx UK and Europe, said: "Wessex's presentation really stood out."

No problem. Yeah had some samples sent out, to put it bluntly the Hexx kit is so much better than our current kit, we are aiming to get some under the endorsement programme I hope.

Thanks for your help. I know, I couldn't believe how good they are in terms of promoting athlete and club development. Have you seen there 2012 club kit range? We were talking about it at last weeks committee meeting. In that case I will get in touch with them.

If they aren't endorsed at the moment but considering Strength and Conditioning then I think it's definitely worth them applying for this years endorsement. I know there are 5 levels of endorsement so it may be the case that Hexx are able to offer them some kind of support? The best person to speak to is obviously Jack Royle

Wondered what all this hype on here was about today. Pleased I've read this though, you might be able to help:
I know Jack Royle works with teams if they are endorsed but do you know if he does Strength and Conditioning with athletes that aren't endorsed? A couple of my friends have told me he was great and Hexx do everything they can to support your development. My friends got some good kit and loads of extras real cheap.

Didn't mean to write that twice! Thought it didn't work the first time. If you aren't getting the emails, just email Jack, sure you have his email address if he was working with your athletes? Private message me if you need it. Good luck with the rest of the season
