AFC Bournemouth has announced a three-year partnership with a Dorset-based firm.
Tee Screen has roots in Bournemouth and provides durable touchscreen devices, which will be in and around Dean Court to help supporters on a matchday.
Signing on as the club’s first champion regional partner, Tee Screen devices were first installed at Dean Court ahead of the side’s first home Premier League fixture against Newcastle United.
Rob Mitchell, commercial director at AFC Bournemouth, said: “I’m thrilled to welcome Tee Screen as the club’s first Champion Regional Partner and we’re really looking forward to working alongside them for the first time.
“We’re keen to build a long and successful relationship with the organisation, who are based in Bournemouth and have strong connections to the local area.
“As we’ve already seen this season, the screens in and around Vitality Stadium really add to the matchday experience and we’re delighted our supporters can benefit from the partnership alongside the club.”
John Webb, co-founder of Tee Screen, added: “We've attracted considerable interest from football clubs across the UK, but starting this journey with our hometown club felt like the right decision.
“Forming a three-year partnership to support this initiative was the next logical step.”
