Marshall Amplification, Title Partners of the Football Club between 2004 and 2009, have sponsored MK Dons Women since 2019 and their globally-recognised logo will continue to adorn their playing shirts through to a fourth term.

The Bletchley-based company’s financial support has been vital for MK Dons Women, who play their FA Women’s National League matches at Stadium MK - one of the only Women’s sides in the country to play at the same stadium as the Men’s team.

MK Dons Sport and Education Trust Chief Executive, Maralyn Smith, said: “It’s absolutely phenomenal for us to have an iconic brand, such as Marshall Amplification, as our sponsors for a further two seasons.

“This support provides real stability for the SET to move our Women’s team forward and allows us to grow and develop our football programme for women and girls across Milton Keynes.

“With the UEFA Women’s EUROs coming to Stadium MK in 2022, and fans hopefully returning to stadiums too, this is an exciting time for MK Dons Women and it provides a real opportunity for us to showcase our Women’s team – an opportunity only enhance by the backing of Marshall Amplification.”

Jon Ellery, Managing Director of Marshall Amplification, told mkdons.com: “We’ve been long-standing supporters of MK Dons and it was a great honour to be asked to sponsor the Women’s team back in 2019 and we are delighted to extend that support for a further two seasons.

“It’s fantastic, first and foremost, to see the Marshall logo back on front of an MK Dons shirt but we’re also 100 percent behind helping MK Dons Women’s to promote female participation in sport here in Milton Keynes.”

Under manager Charlie Bill, MK Dons Women have made constant improvement on the pitch, not least during the Coronavirus-affected 2020/21 campaign when the Dons were on course for their best-ever points tally before the season was curtailed.

MK Dons SET Football Development Manager, Jack Sharp, added: “It is a brilliant to have such a renowned brand sponsoring our Women’s Team and is a privilege to have the Marshall logo on the front of our shirts for another two seasons.

“Marshall are a global brand but also a local company that recognises and supports what we are trying to achieve at MK Dons Women. That creates such a positive environment for our players and coaches and provides them with a platform to be the best they can be.

“This is one of the biggest sponsorship deals outside of the WSL and that financial support allows us to invest in putting together a football team that MK Dons and the people of Milton Keynes can be proud of.”

The new MK Dons Women shirt will be revealed in due course.
