**Why it matters:** Without sponsorship support, the Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC) would struggle to maintain its current level of access, facilities and programmes for the local community.

**In their words:** "The support from Ellisons, alongside our other sponsors, is absolutely invaluable. Without their generosity, we simply wouldn't be able to offer the same level of access, facilities and programmes," said Andy Isles, Chairman of [Ipswich Sports Club](https://www.ipswich.co.uk/tag/ipswich-sports-club/).

**The bigger picture:** Ipswich Sports Club has established itself as a cornerstone of local sport, offering various activities and developing talent from grassroots to professional levels.

The club has produced elite athletes and regularly hosts prestigious international tournaments.

**What they're saying:** "We're incredibly proud to sponsor a club with such a strong reputation for developing talent and attracting international tournaments," said [Guy Longhurst](https://www.ipswich.co.uk/tag/guy-longhurst/), Managing Partner at [Ellisons](https://www.ipswich.co.uk/tag/ellisons/).

"Sport has a unique ability to unite communities, you only have to look at ITFC at the moment for proof of that, so it's crucial that organisations like Ipswich Sports Club continue to thrive," he added.

Longhurst also noted a personal benefit to the partnership: "I also love a game of Padel and see this as a great excuse to make use of the facilities myself!"

**The bottom line:** This partnership reflects the latest commitment from Ellisons to support community initiatives with lasting impact, after just last week announcing their [partnership with Brighten the Corners](https://www.ipswich.co.uk/tag/partnership-with-brighten-the-corners/), whilst ensuring the sports club can provide an inclusive environment for enthusiasts of all abilities.
