Hop Oast no more! Hornets rename their new stadium

By Ian Townsend

The Camping World Community Stadium is due to open shortly

New Division, new ground, new squad- and now Horsham have a new name for their new stadium.

The Hornets are about to begin a new era which sees them move back to their home town- and to a home of their own after more than a decade as wandering nomads- and yesterday they announced a commercial deal which will see their new stadium renamed ‘The Camping World Community Stadium’ for at least the next three years, with the option of another two year deal after that.

The agreement will also see the Camping World logo appear on the backs of first team home and away shirts, above the players numbers.

In a statement released by the club, Horsham FC’s commercial director Paul Osborn explained:

”With the opening of our new stadium, we have a fantastic new sports facility that will benefit the whole Horsham community, and we are delighted to be partnering with an outstanding company such as Camping World that shares our core community values of healthy living and outdoor activity. This is a partnership that brings far more than financial benefits to the Club and we very much look forward to working closely with Camping World in a number of areas that will be of mutual benefit to both organisations”.

Camping World’s managing director Nathan Hyde added:

“Being a key part of the Horsham business community for so many years, this is a great opportunity to be able to support our local team and give something back to the area – the new stadium is the jewel at the heart of the Horsham community and reflects the Club’s ambition”.
