Oxford United recently announced that Baxi, a company specializing in heating and hot water solutions, will be the club’s new front-of-shirt sponsor for the upcoming season. Baxi, founded in Preston in 1866, offers a range of products including boilers, air source heat pumps, and hot water cylinders.
This sponsorship deal is a significant one for Oxford United, setting a new record for the club. Fans can expect to see the Baxi logo prominently displayed on the front of the team’s shirts when they take on Norwich City in their first game of the Sky Bet Championship season.
For those eager to show their support, the home shirt featuring the Baxi logo will be available for pre-order online starting Sunday. The club anticipates that the shirts will be in stock at the club shop by the week commencing August 19th. Additionally, Baxi is offering fans who purchased the shirt before the sponsor was announced the chance to have the logo applied for free at the club shop between August 19th and September 19th.
In addition to the home kit, Oxford United will soon unveil their away and third kits, as mentioned in the club’s official statement. It’s interesting to note that Baxi has a history of involvement in football sponsorship, having previously sponsored Preston North End and even held ownership of the club from 1994 to 2002.
As fans eagerly await the start of the new season, the partnership between Oxford United and Baxi signals an exciting new chapter for the club. With the Baxi logo proudly displayed on their shirts, the team and its supporters can look forward to a season filled with promise and potential. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming kits and other news from Oxford United as they prepare to kick off their Championship campaign.
