A Scottish League Two team has announced that they’ve struck an “exciting sponsorship deal”.
Edinburgh-based club The Spartans play at Ainslie Park in the north-side of the capital.
Their home stadium can house over 3500 supporters and often hosts the women's team, who play in the SWPL 1, and community-based matches too.
But now as of Friday, January 24, the ground will officially be called The Vanloq Community Stadium at The Spartans Football Club.
Debbi McCulloch, CEO at The Spartans Foundation commented: “On behalf of everyone at the Spartans Community Foundation, we are thrilled to express our heartfelt thanks to Vanloq for their generous support as the sponsor of The Vanloq Community Stadium.
"Our partnership not only enables us to grow and strengthen our connection with the community, but also change people’s lives through the power of sport. Together, we look forward to creating unforgettable moments and a bright future by creating a social village that people from across North Edinburgh and beyond can access.”
