The agreement will see Utilita be the energy partner for the Premiership side and the shirt sponsor for Crystal Palace Ladies.

Richard Spokes, chairman of Crystal Palace Ladies FC, said: “The news that our main sponsor, Utilita, are continuing their support is absolutely fantastic, and further evidence that Crystal Palace Ladies FC and the women’s game are hugely credible opportunities for market-leading businesses, such as Utilita.

“This partnership has been recognised across our sport and has drawn huge levels of positive feedback and will form an integral part of our bid to join the footballing elite within The Women’s Super League."

Jem Maidment, head of marketing and communications, Utilita Energy, added: "Palace’s support is huge, loyal and one of the most passionate in British football –this is also an incredibly exciting time for the club with the arrival of Frank de Boer.

“While we will showcase both our domestic and commercial products to Palace fans and the wider community, we are particularly excited to be partnering with the Palace For Life Foundation, supporting inspirational community projects in and around the South East London area. Its work is significant and humbling.

“In addition, we consider it an honour to continue as shirt sponsor for Crystal Palace Ladies FC – there has never been a more exciting time to be involved in women’s football, which is enjoying unprecedented success, and we believe it is only a matter of time before Palace join the Women’s Super League.”
