Hankook
Tyres has been an instrumental sponsor of the club throughout the last decade
which, with their backing, has been a highly successful time for Carrick
Rangers. In the last ten years, the ‘Gers have lifted both the Championship and
the Intermediate Cup twice as well as winning the Steel & Sons Cup in 2014.
Additionally, the East Antrim outfit reached the League Cup final in 2017 and
dramatically won three play-off games in six days at the end of last season to
clinch promotion to the Danske Bank Premiership.
The
great successes which the club has enjoyed in the last decade would not have
been possible without the committed sponsorship of Hankook Tyres and so we must
place on record our sincere gratitude to Derek Hill of Hankook Tyres for his
unwavering support of Carrick Rangers throughout these last ten years.
With the
sponsorship agreement renewed for another season, Derek Hill of Hankook Tyres commented,
“We are pleased to enter into our tenth-year
sponsoring Carrick Rangers; it is good to support local clubs and give them the
financial help they desperately need to survive. Hankook are big supporters of
football across Europe and are prominent in supporting footballing competitions
like the Europa
League as well as partnering world renowned clubs like Real Madrid, so
why not Carrick
Rangers too!”
Chairman of Carrick Rangers, Peter Clarke, also added,
It is hard to
believe that it is now ten years since Hankook began sponsoring the club; I
would like to personally thank Derek for all his hard work and support over all
these years. The financial support provided has helped us develop and grow the club
and has certainly helped us in our quest for Premiership status. As Derek said,
Hankook are renowned for sponsoring football clubs and we look forward to
further expanding our relationship.”
Thank you for your continued support Derek and Hankook Tyres!
