Boskalis

Boskalis, a leading global dredging contractor and marine services provider, has signed a deal which will see them remain Principle Partner of AFC Women for the next three years.

In what was a first for Aberdeen FC, and for Scottish football more generally, the new Dons away kit was launched by AFC Women’s players at an exclusive event held at Boskalis offices in Westhill, during which this continued partnership was officially confirmed.

Boskalis have been proud supporters of AFC Women since 2018, helping the Club in its pursuit to deliver success on the pitch but also elevate the women’s game in the North-east by promoting an inclusive, professional pathway for all females in the sport.

The renewed deal will see the Boskalis branding remain front and centre on the playing kits of AFC Women, but they have also enhanced their agreement to support the growth of the AFC Girls Academy.

Commenting on this continued partnership with Boskalis, Robbie Hedderman, Commercial Director of Aberdeen FC, said: “We are delighted to see such a valued partner renew their support of AFC Women, helping the Club to continue to give the women’s game the platform is quite rightly deserves.

“Boskalis have been with us on this journey with AFC Women since day one and they are very determined to be with us for the long haul and help us grow not only the women’s team but also the academy team and grassroots. They are all in.Stuart Cameron, Managing Director of Boskalis, added: “Since we became the first shirt sponsor of the Aberdeen Women’s team we are delighted that the football operation and our business in the North Sea have both grown and developed side by side.

“It seemed appropriate as the football club launched its new away kit for 2024/25 season at our office that we mark this by announcing a three-year extension of our sponsorship.

“We very much look forward to supporting new AFC Women’s manager Colin Bell and the team in the next phase of our journey together.”

The brand new 24/25 Aberdeen FC away kit is available to order now with the Wasp Kit paying homage to a significant period in the club’s history and the design takes inspiration from the early days when the team was affectionately nicknamed “The Wasps” due to their distinctive black and gold striped shirts.
