Businessman Dean Chew is offering some extra valuable support to his son\u2019s under-13\u2019s football team.<\/p>\n

For the former TV technician and NHS worker has sponsored\u00a0Yorkshire Amateur Junior FC U13 Barca\u00a0– with the players\u2019 new kit now bearing the distinctive Ovenu branding.<\/p>\n

Dean, who launched oven valeting service Ovenu Leeds North West last summer, said the gesture is designed to support the area\u2019s young people, as well as grassroots football.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cMy lad Theo has been playing football since the age of five and since joining U13 Barca several months ago, I\u2019ve naturally taken an interest.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis team has a real pride and passion, but also requires plenty of effort behind the scenes to keeping things running smoothly. Raising money has been especially tough during the pandemic, so I wanted to help out by sponsoring them.\u201d<\/p>\n

That support has certainly rubbed off with U13 Barca recently celebrating a convincing 9-0 home victory against Farsley Celtic FC U13 Greens.<\/p>\n

Dean, who had worked in the NHS, returned to help out early last year as a locum\u00a0orthopaedic plaster technician, before finally realising his ambition to run his own business.<\/p>\n

He previously spent 19 years as a stage technician in the theatre and with Opera North and Northern Ballet, plus a further three years with TV props departments.<\/p>\n

Dean said: \u201cAlthough it was a difficult time to take on any business, the pandemic meant more people spent time at home cooking and baking, which has kept me very busy.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve already built up a loyal client-base and the business is going from strength to strength, so it\u2019s nice to be able to give something back.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stephen Broodie, U13\u2019s coach, said: \u201cEveryone connected with the team and club are extremely grateful to Dean for his support. \u00a0After a testing year, and the kids not playing football for long periods,\u00a0this sponsorship is really positive. It has provided a new full kit for all the players, which looks amazing and really means the world to us.\u00a0They are super proud to wear the shirt week in week out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
