Brighton and Hove Albion have extended the shirt sponsorship deal of IT specialist company IT First.

The deal, which will see IT First continue to place their logo on Brighton’s kits, will run until the end of next season when the option for a further season will become available.

Dick Knight, Brighton Chairman, said: “IT First have been huge supporters of Albion for many years. This season was the first as our main sponsor and we’re delighted that they have agreed to extend the deal into next season and hopefully beyond.”

Paul Goldsmith, CEO IT first, said: “When we first agreed the deal, I said it was fulfilling a dream and now I am delighted that we have been able to continue the dream and extend the sponsorship.”
