Bellway scores with Snaith Storm

The Yorkshire division of national homebuilder, Bellway Homes has certainly found the back of the net with a local junior football team in Snaith – sponsoring the teams new kits for the 2025 / 26 season.

Snaith Storm U18s, whose home ground is just a big goal kick away from Bellway’s Penny Way development, play in the Selby District League – Division 1, and their season begins away against Monk Fryston.

Melanie Smith, Bellway Yorkshire’s sales director, said: “We don’t just come into town, build new homes and leave; our aim is to build communities and become part of them ourselves. We’ve already had lots of community activity, including a Bake Off competition and a summer fair, and sponsoring the football team that plays so nearby was something we just had to do.”

The Bellway sponsorship enabled Snaith Storm to buy a new set of kits for the forthcoming season. With the new strip making its first outing for a friendly match against Knottingley Albion on August 30th – a game they won 6-1.

Pete Wilson, the coach of Snaith Storm – along with Barry Leadbitter and Paul Aston, said: “Bellway’s support has been hugely appreciated – and we do hope that some of their sales and construction teams will be able to come along and support us during the season. And I have to say, the lads looked great on Saturday and it was lovely to see their performance mirroring that.”

Being built in a semi-rural location on the outskirts of Snaith, Penny Way features a strong mix of different designs and sizes, including two-, three-, four- and five-bedroom homes. With prices on the development currently ranging from £374,995 for a four-bed detached home to £524,995 for a five-bed detached property.

“The mix of homes means Penny Way really does have the widest possibly appeal – from growing families to downsizers; first time buyers to those simply looking to climb the property ladder,” added Melanie. “And this width of appeal has a played a big role in the strength of sales; with buyers coming from all walks and stages of life.”
