Impetus are proud to mark International Women’s Day by announcing our first confirmed player sponsorships for 2023/24 – Genero Adran Premier side Aberystwyth Town’s recent first-team debutants Modlen Gwynne and Ella Thomas.
Both 15 years of age, Modlen and Ella have come through the ranks at Park Avenue – and have definitely impressed after being given the thumbs-up by the FAW to play senior football in the top tier of the Welsh club game.
“Everyone at Impetus is really excited to be sponsoring two of the next generation of Aberystwyth Town players in Modlen and Ella – we look forward to following their progress over the coming years,” said Ben Gilby, founder and chief editor of Impetus.
“More widely, the site is really glad to be sponsoring two young Welsh footballers, as this is the first time that Impetus has embarked on sponsorship in Wales after sponsoring players in England, Scotland, and Australia. We couldn’t think of a better or friendlier club to be launching that sponsorship with than Aberystwyth Town Women.”
Aberystwyth Town First-team manager Gav Allen added: “I’d like to thank Impetus for sponsoring both these very exciting players coming through. As I’m sure everyone knows, Aberystwyth’s location means we sometimes struggle with recruitment so it’s essential we look after our own and our talent pathway.”
Impetus currently sponsor 14 players around the world as well as two indigenous Australian female scholars as part of our relationship with charity partners Moriarty Foundation.
We will be introducing our global readership to Modlen and Ella in the coming weeks via individual interviews.
