We were delighted to join the players, management, and other sponsors at a special pre-season event hosted by Torquay United Women yesterday (Sunday 1 September).
Weltch Media’s Andy Weltch with our sponsored player Danni Wyatt
As long-time sponsors of club captain Danni Wyatt, we were invited to Torquay’s historic Plainmoor ground for the event, which also included the team’s official photo session.
Also among those attending were Mike Westcott, co-chair of the Bryn Consortium, which took over Torquay United in May, and men’s captain Oscar Threlkeld.
“It was a wonderful afternoon,” said Andy Weltch. “Great to catch up with Danni and others, to meet the new management, and to feel the positivity around the club now. There’s a very different vibe about the potential for the men’s team, and a welcoming and inclusive attitude to the women’s team, which hasn’t always been the case”.
“After a successful pre-season, we’re looking forward to another season supporting the women, who begin their South West Regional Women’s Football League next weekend.”
Weltch Media first sponsored Danni in the 2017/18 campaign, when she helped Torquay to third place in the league and to the final of the Devon Cup and won the goal of the season award.
In 2022, she helped Torquay to a sensational victory in the Devon FA Cup Final and was named club player of the season.
And back in 2020, she was among our friends who featured in the popular lockdown comedy promo video With a T.
Torquay will be playing in the South West Regional Premier Division, at the fifth level of the English pyramid, and looking for promotion back to the FA National League.
