A day out with friends and family, community engagement or business development – we can find the right package for you.

We are rewriting the record books here at Hastings United FC! With rising crowds watching us finish in our highest league position for years, as well as being Sussex Senior Cup Finalist’s, the 23/4 season has been an outstanding season for the new owners, sponsors, fans and Hastings community alike. But the best is yet to come!

We invite you to get behind the U’s in what is promising to be an exciting next chapter in the future of Hastings United Football Club. You will become involved not only with the Towns Premier men’s and women’s footballing sides but with one of the largest youth organisations in East Sussex and a Club with the best interests of our community at our heart.

Matching the high ambitions of the Club, we have re-packaged our sponsorship/partnership opportunities and advertising rates…. From pitch side advertising through to match day sponsorship there is something to suit everyone wanting to give their business an increased profile in the East Sussex area or for a U’s fan, celebrating a special occasion with friends or family.
