Lindsay Automotive Group renews partnership with Arlington Soccer
Local family-owned business remains official sponsor of rec program
ARLINGTON, Va. – Arlington Soccer is excited to announce Lindsay Automotive Group has renewed its partnership as the official sponsor of the Arlington Soccer recreational program.
A local, family-owned and operated business for 60 years, Lindsay Automotive Group has been a longtime supporter of Arlington Soccer. Since 2011, "Lindsay" has graced the front of the club’s rec jerseys worn by more than 6,000 children every year.
To counter rising operating costs, the club turned to its corporate community for additional sponsorship opportunities on the back of the jerseys. Wanting to prevent families from having to purchase new uniforms, Lindsay Automotive Group not only renewed its commitment to the front of the jersey but also purchased the back logo position.
Lindsay Automotive Group, however, chose to leave the back position blank to ensure the existing jerseys will match the future jerseys. This allows families and neighbors to continue passing their jerseys down to siblings and friends who live within the 12 neighborhood clubs.
“We couldn’t be more blown away by the support of Mike Lindsay and the Lindsay Automotive Group,” Arlington Soccer Executive Director Frank DeMarco said. “The Lindsay family has been supporting our club since the mid-70s so we know how much they are ingrained in the fabric of Arlington Soccer. Still, their gesture to help take the financial burden off our families and continue the tradition of passing down our neighborhood jerseys is truly outstanding. We can’t thank them enough for their commitment and contributions to community organizations like ours.”
Added Michael Lindsay, president of Lindsay Automotive Group: “As a lifelong resident of Arlington, I’ve been fortunate enough to see the growth of Arlington Soccer. Lindsay Automotive Group is thrilled to be connected to a terrific soccer organization that provides countless opportunities for children of all backgrounds. We understand the value of youth sports and we’re excited to continue this wonderful community partnership with our friends at Arlington Soccer.”
