Yeo Valley plans to use the partnership to promote opportunities for girls and women to take part in sport and the brand’s logo will feature on the team’s kit.

Adrian Carne, from Yeo Valley, said: “We’re extremely proud to be getting behind our local team, Bristol City Women this season and we are equally very excited about our new partnership with Bristol Sport.

“We think living an active lifestyle and taking part in sport is important and we hope through this new association we can use our brand effectively to make a difference.”

Caroline Herbert, from Bristol Sport, said: “Yeo Valley will have a positive and lasting impact on both, Bristol City Women and women’s football in England, helping us to reach new demographics and drive increased awareness of the women’s game.”
