  David Ashworth presented the new banners at a recent Hammonds concert

The 2018 Grand Shield champion, Hammonds has just taken delivery of their new stand banners courtesy of David Ashworth at Fanfare North. It's the latest addition to their 'new look' which has seen David's company provide the Yorkshire top flight band with polo-shirts, shell jackets and hoodies.

Impressed

A Band spokesperson told 4BR: "We were very impressed the quality on all the other products Fanfare North supplied to us, so we enquired about new banners and Dave kindly offered to do them for us free of charge.

They are top quality and look fantastic. We are very grateful to Dave and Fanfare North and we have now made them our first-choice supplier."

Dave presented the band and their MD Morgan Griffiths with the new banners at their recent concert in Mirfield.
