Get Closer to the Team
Our Own & Loan scheme gives supporters and businesses the chance to purchase a player's jersey and loan it back to the club for the season. Your sponsored jersey is worn throughout the campaign — then becomes yours to keep at the end of the year. Whether it's your favourite player, a future club legend, or simply a jersey you love, this is your chance to own a genuine piece of Bristol Pitbulls history.
Every Package Includes
Each Own & Loan package is designed to bring you closer to the team — from match-worn memorabilia to recognition across our channels.

Your sponsored player's official game-worn jersey, handed over to you at the end of the season.

Three Simple Steps
From checkout to handover — here's exactly how your Own & Loan journey runs across the 26/27 season.
Pick Your Player & Package
Choose from the roster above, select your jersey type or full sponsorship, and complete payment online. Your spot is confirmed via email.
Watch It Worn All Season
Your sponsored jersey is worn throughout the regular season. Your name appears on the roster page, and away sponsors get match night recognition.
Collect at Handover Evening
At the end of the regular season we host a special handover evening — meet your player, get your photo, and walk away with your jersey.
Important — Please Read
Once purchased, your selected jersey is loaned back to the club and worn throughout the regular season by your sponsored player. Towards the end of the campaign we'll host a special handover evening where supporters can meet their player and collect their jersey. Jerseys may continue to be worn until the regular season completes before collection arrangements are confirmed.
Own & Loan availability on the website is updated periodically and may not always reflect live availability. For the most accurate availability, please refer to each individual player package. Payment is taken at the time of purchase and confirmed via email. All purchases are final and cannot be refunded, transferred, or resold without prior agreement from Pitbulls Support.
Please note: Jerseys are not secured whilst sitting in your basket. If you experience any issues regarding payment, please contact info@bristolpitbulls.co.uk. The club also reserves the right to use selected players for special 'Shirt Off The Back' raffle games — in these instances, the player will wear a separate jersey specifically for that game, which will be presented to the raffle winner.
Need to Know
Jerseys are worn throughout the regular season, then handed over at a special end-of-season handover evening. You'll meet your player, get a photo, and collect your match-worn jersey then.

Jersey sponsorships (£130–£180) get you one specific match-worn jersey at the end of the season plus a photo and signed puck. Player Sponsorship (£750 + VAT) is a premium full-season package including jerseys, brand exposure, social media content, and far greater visibility for businesses and serious supporters.
The club reserves the right to use selected players for special 'Shirt Off The Back' raffle games. In these instances the player will wear a separate jersey specifically for that game, which is presented to the raffle winner — your sponsored jersey is unaffected.
