Stockport Metro, a world leading swimming club, breeds success: 4 olympic medals, 5 world championships, 3 world titles, 12 commonwealth games and 8 European championship medals and no less than 10 paralympian medals.
Stockport Metro…the club I considered best for me” Steve Parry, Olympic Bronze medallist
Their philosophy is to develop swimmers from the beginners pool to the olympic podium; 6000 children attend swimming lessons every week and Stockport Metro boasts more olympic medallists than any other swim programme in Great Britain’s history.
But due to cuts in public funding the club are in need of financial support to ensure build on their achievements and ensure future success.
Depending of the nature of the business they can tailor packages to benefit all concerned.
Their vision is to build the equivalent of ‘Team Sky’ cycling team within swimming; with a World Class coaching team in place, they are arguably as good as anywhere in the world but they need finance to extend our support services.
In terms of the number of individual Olympic medallists, they remain the most successful club in British history. At a time that British Swimming has had a rough ride in the public eye this could be an ideal time for major investors to back a team that can perform when it counts. Their current Performance Director, Sean Kelly, coached 3 out of the last 13 British Olympic Medallists. Given that Becky Adlington won 4 of the others you can see how rare they are in Britain. That doesn’t need to be the case.
Whilst they are looking for headline sponsors, they are equally looking for smaller investors to buy in over a 4 year period. Even the smallest donations will make a difference.
If you are in a position to invest or make a donation, the club will be happy to discuss a mutually beneficial package further including media exposure.
For more, take a look at two of their most recent promotional videos on you tube. The first has received in excess of 206,000 hits in a couple of months. The second video covers their recent photo shoot and was launched on 11th Sept and already has over 15,000 hits.
