Jarvis Brook FC to play at The Tester & Jones Sportsground

Independent SAIF-approved funeral director, Tester & Jones Funeral Services, based in Crowborough, is proud to have signed a significant sponsorship agreement with Jarvis Brook Football Club.

This results in the Club’s ground in Palesgate Lane officially being named The Tester & Jones Sportsground for the next two years.

It comes after a hugely successful 2024/2025 season for Jarvis Brook FC, which saw the Club promoted to Division One of the Southern Combination Football League – marking a move into senior football for the first time in the Club’s history!

“We are so pleased to sponsor Jarvis Brook Football Club,” says Glenys Jones of Tester & Jones Funeral Services. “Like us, they are in the heart of the Crowborough community and have been for many years. We look forward to attending matches, especially with the excitement of being in Senior football for the coming season.”

Tester & Jones’ owners, Chairman Willy Brunsdon and Managing Director Glenys Jones, were delighted to shake hands on the deal with Jarvis Brook FC’s new Chairman, Josh Allcorn, who said: "We thank Willy and Glenys for their generous sponsorship for the naming rights to our ground. Not only does this help over 80 men’s players fulfil their dreams of playing Senior football but also provides a pathway for our 350 junior players to have something to work

towards in the future. This generous sponsorship contributes hugely to the work going into developing our ground over this summer."

Jarvis Brook FC can trace its history back nearly 130 years – with the first ever recorded match being a 1-1 draw at home to Rotherfield St Denys on 25 September 1897. Since then, the Club has grown to include not only Senior Football but Mini Soccer and Youth Football teams as well.
