In a fitting tribute to Everton's last season at Goodison Park, Christopher Ward, one of the UK's leading watch brands, has been announced as the club’s Official Sleeve Partner for the 2024/25 campaign. The partnership marks a significant moment in both the club’s history and Christopher Ward’s ongoing relationship with Everton, which began in 2022.
The Christopher Ward logo will be prominently displayed on the shirts of Everton's Men's Senior Team throughout the season, starting with their Premier League opener against Brighton & Hove Albion. This collaboration is the latest development in a strong partnership that also sees Christopher Ward featured on the back of Everton Women’s playing shirts.
Richard Kenyon, Everton’s Chief Commercial and Communications Officer, expressed his enthusiasm for the extended partnership, highlighting the mutual growth experienced by both parties: "Christopher Ward has been an outstanding partner, and we’re thrilled to further strengthen our relationship. Their support for our community programs has been invaluable, and we look forward to continuing this journey together."
Christopher Ward has made a significant impact not only through its innovative approach to watchmaking but also through its support of local causes. Earlier this year, the brand collaborated with Everton in the Community (EitC) on an intergenerational program, bridging generations through the club's community outreach efforts. In a further show of support, all profits from the sale of the limited edition "Dixie Dean Chronometer" were donated to EitC, underscoring the brand's commitment to the club and its values.
Mike France, CEO and Co-Founder of Christopher Ward expressed his pride in the partnership, particularly in this momentous season, stating "As a lifelong Evertonian, I’m proud to see our logo on the club’s shirts during this historic final season at Goodison Park."
