Date: 9th June 2009

HTFC CHAIRMAN ‘WHEELY’ NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT AS HE PEDDLES HIS WAY FOR ‘KEEP IT UP’!

Huddersfield Town Chairman Dean Hoyle and Commercial Director  Sean Jarvis need your support after promising to get to the team’s first away game of the 2009/10 season on their bicycles to raise money for the Keep It Up campaign!

The high-ranking duo aim to gain sponsorship and raise money for ‘Keep It Up’ by cycling to the first away game of the upcoming 2009/10 season, with all proceeds going to the new fund which supports the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and the Huddersfield Town Academy.

You can now sponsor the duo as they aim to raise £50,000 for Yorkshire Air Ambulance through the ‘Keep It Up’ campaign by donating now!

This early promise from Hoyle and Jarvis could mean a long-distance bike ride to places like Exeter or Yeovil depending on how kind the fixture list is when it is released on June 17^th, but Dean explained that they don’t fear the challenge!

“Sean and I guarantee that we will cycle to our first away game of the 2009/10 season and I hope the fans will back us as we try and raise money for the ‘Keep It Up’ campaign. It is a very worthy cause as it costs £7,200 to keep the two Yorkshire Air Ambulances up in the air and anything we can do to raise their profile is a good thing.

“Pledging this now could result in us going as far as Yeovil Town or Exeter City, but we are fully prepared for that eventuality. It’s a big challenge, so hopefully we can raise some good money for this worthwhile cause.

We can now confirm Dean and Sean will be cycling all the way to Southend United for HTFC’s first away game of the season.

The new ‘hotline’ number for telephone donations to Dean and Sean’s bike ride is 01484 484100. So call now, or visit our donations site its for a very good cause and every penny counts!
