Why We Sponsor Bournemouth Rugby Club: A Stand for Equity and the Future of Women's Sport
More than damp proofing, Proofterior invests in young athletes and a fairer playing field in Bournemouth.
At Proofterior, we protect more than homes. We also back our community, which is why we proudly sponsor the Bournemouth rugby club U18 women’s team. From day one, our goal has been simple, support opportunity, grow participation, and help create a level field for girls in sport.
Supporting More Than Just Homes.
Homeowners trust us to make properties safe, dry and healthy. Similarly, families trust local clubs to help young people thrive. Because both missions matter, we channel a portion of our success into community partnerships. As a result, our sponsorship does more than place a logo on a shirt, it funds kit, travel support and essential resources that keep the team competitive. In addition, our staff show up on match days, celebrate wins, and learn how the club empowers players on and off the pitch.
Championing the Next Generation
Women’s rugby is growing fast across the UK, yet resources often trail behind the ambition of young athletes. Through this sponsorship, we help the U18s access better equipment, improved coaching environments and the visibility they deserve. Moreover, the players train hard, play fiercely and inspire younger girls who are watching from the touchline. By backing them now, we encourage higher retention in sport, stronger confidence in school and clearer pathways into senior rugby.
Why It Matters to Us
Our day job is about protecting people and futures. Whether we are resolving damp, completing repairs or guiding landlords to meet standards, we do the work properly because families depend on it. In the same way, we take community commitments seriously. Therefore, this partnership reflects our values, integrity, responsibility and long-term support. Instead of one-off gestures, we build relationships that deliver real benefits for the club and the town.
Local Pride, National Impact
Bournemouth is our home base and we are proud of it. Supporting a local girls’ side helps shift the story of who belongs in sport and who gets seen. For example, a packed sideline for a U18 women’s fixture changes perceptions and motivates more girls to try rugby. Likewise, the team’s progress raises the profile of women’s sport in Dorset and beyond. Ultimately, when young athletes are visible, participation grows and communities become stronger.
Pushing the Narrative Forward
Progress takes more than talk. It takes consistent investment, practical help and people who show up. That is why we will continue backing the Bournemouth rugby club U18 women’s team, promoting their fixtures, and celebrating their achievements. In turn, we invite customers, partners and neighbours to get involved, attend a match, share a post, or donate time. Small actions add up, and together we can keep momentum moving toward fairness.
