According to the Hitchin Town web site the Southern League are announcing a sponsor to replace Evo Stik. The announcement is scheduled for 1 July - a week before the friendlies start.
Going to be fun for every club changing kit, websites, and everything else at such short notice!
Also the Isthmian League appears to have broken its links with Evo Stik and states "The new contract is with a national brand who want to work with us because of our growing digital footprint, and will last for an initial two years." A deal has also been announced with Vanarama. which states they will add value to the Isthmian League.
No information regarding Evo Stik and the Northern Premier League.....yet.
Watch this space.

Watch this space. The NPL announced Vanarama as their "official vehicle leasing partners" at their AGM on Saturday read into that how you will
That'll be easy to remember the individual division names
unless stated, all views are my own and are not the views of any other person, club, or organisation

I could be totally wrong, however I think the Southern League may announce a betting company as their sponsor on July 2nd.

The Vanarama deal with the Isthmian league is as vehicle leasing partner. Think the League sponsor will be a different company.

read into that how you will So we could potentially has 4 leagues, comprising 14 divisions, over 4 levels, all with the same sponsor? That'll be easy to remember the individual division names
I find it easier to ignore the sponsors names altogether.
Totally agree with the above comment. Indeed, it is the policy of the NLM fixtures/results section to have no reference to sponsors names. The Isthmian League is still the Isthmian League and not the Bostik League which could well change again.

Think the Southern League have given the game away.
Website still says Evo Stik, however the tab heading says 'Welcome to the BetVictor Southern League - Evo Stik League South'

I don't even know where to start with that.
As the Programme Editor at a Step 4 club, I am forbidden to gamble on any form of football, anywhere in the world, by FA Rules. If I was to put a fiver on England to beat Norway in the Women's World Cup, it could see me banned from having any involvement in the game.
At the same time, Gambling is one of the social activities that might be considered to have a 'sting in the tail'. Gambling addicition is real, in much the same way as alcoholism is, or being addicted to smoking. Tobacco advertising is banned across the board, which is fair enough, but football seems to be desperate to take sponsorship money from bookmakers.
I think I would have less of a problem with that were it not for the inherent hypocrisy in the rules; it is absolutely fine for The FA and / or the Leagues and clubs to take money from bookies in sponsorship, but not for volunteers to put a bet on a game they can have no influence over.

I was not aware that the rules re betting went that far & I agree with your comments. Are all volunteers included or is your programme editor position the cause? Not that I can see any reason why it should.

I believe it applies to all volunteers. I’ve been told that as I’m connected to the club that I can’t bet on any football even if it’s a game in the Bolivian 2nd division! Madness!
