Amateur side Stewarton United has announced a fresh name change ahead of the new season. 

The club, which competes in the Ayrshire Amateur Premiership, will now be known as Stewarton Annick Amateurs. 

The change of name brings the club in line with the ever-growing Stewarton Annick youth setup, which boats hundreds of youngsters of all ages. 

A club spokesperson said: "With such enthusiasm in the town for the sport, we’ve come together to create an even bigger football family, while creating a clear pathway for the players in the town, to progress from youth football into adult football.

"So with that, some fantastic sponsorship opportunities await for the coming season with Stewarton Annick Amateurs.

"We are always keen to build relationships with businesses local to our team, helping promote your brand not only on our kit but on our growing social media platforms.

"With these exciting plans for the club, we will be having somewhat of a rebrand, with new kits, players and officials clothing.

"If your business would like to take advantage of sponsorship in any way, please drop the page a message, email stewartonafc@gmail.com or contact Rab on 07595 993863 or James on 07545 264231."
