The English European representatives Brighouse & Rastrick will certainly be making a mark both musically and sartorially in Lille this weekend.

Under the baton Prof David King they will be hoping to bring the iconic European Trophy back to Yorkshire — and to be displaying it wearing their new polo shirts from Your Logo Here.

The lads at Your Logo Here were asked to supply commemorative garments for the band to help them in their bid for contesting glory.

Something special

Band spokesperson Ryan Watkins told 4BR: "Having been preparing for the European Championships we wanted to wear something special to commemorate the trip, and thought a special edition polo shirt for members of the band was a fantastic idea.

We did leave it a bit late, but despite this Gavin, Lloyd and the Your Logo team were incredibly efficient, turning out a difficult 50 piece order within days. The quality of the shirts are fantastic and it was a pleasure to deal with them. It's given us an extra boost as we look to reclaim the European title."

Great endorsement

Your Logo Here Managing Director Lloyd Shipp added: "What a great endorsement and honour to be asked to represent such an outstanding group of musicians and a band stepped in so much history."

Lloyd added:"The team at Your Logo Here wish Brighouse & Rastrick all the very best in Lille and look forward to seeing pictures of the band in their garments — and hopefully holding the European trophy in triumph!"
