The Scottish Lowland Football League Announce Unique Match Ball Sponsorship With A Transatlantic Twist

The Scottish Lowland Football League are delighted to announce that Eagleview Event Center will be joining the league as Match Ball sponsors for the next three seasons.

This partnership has something of a transatlantic flavour, with Eagleview Event Center being the premier wedding venue in Southwest Virginia, USA!

Owners Chris and Joy Butler are used to working hard to ensure that visitors to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains have the perfect wedding day, and now they will be bringing their passion to providing matchday footballs to teams in the Scottish Lowland Football League.

The three-year agreement sees a significant five-figure investment from the venue commonly known as ‘The View’ and will see each team play their matches with custom Mitre balls emblazoned with both the league’s logo and that of Eagleview Event Center.

Chris Butler, owner of The View, said: “We could not be more excited about teaming up with the Park’s Motor Group Scottish Lowland Football League. With eighteen great clubs set to battle it out for the league championship, we hope to make numerous trips to Scotland throughout the season to catch as many matches as possible! To be locked in as the Official Match Ball Sponsor for the next three years, and to be part of the Lowland League for that amount of time, is exciting for us personally and for our wedding venue.

“Eagleview sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, an area that has long maintained a proud connection with the Scottish Highlands. Many of this area’s ancestors hailed from Scotland before making their way to Virginia. You see signs of Scotland in the music and dance all around our area. My grandfather was born in Perth and I’m excited about getting all of us, including our three children, back to my Scottish roots. Joy and I invite all Scots, and especially fans of the Scottish Lowland League, to check out our website and consider having a destination wedding with us in Virginia, USA!”

League chairperson Thomas Brown said: “We are delighted to have Chris and Joy sponsoring match balls for our teams for the next three years.

“Chris and his family are passionate about football and Scotland so this partnership this is a perfect fit for us.

“Everyone involved in the League would like to thank them for their vital sponsorship.

“I look forward to welcoming them to a Lowland League match later this year.”
