A north east architecture and space planning firm has continued its close association with local football by throwing its support behind a young Aberdeen team.

Inverurie-based William Lippe Architects have provided sponsorship for Dyce Boys’ Club under 13 team to help them attend the 2012 Preston M&L Easter Cup youth football event which regularly attracts teams from throughout the UK and Europe.

Dyce Boys’ Club was established in 1980 and has 180 members aged six to 15 years. The Club is the proud holder of the SFA’s Standard Quality Mark.

The move continues a long-standing association with local football by the company which is headed by William Lippe, chairman of Highland League side Inverurie Locos.


Commenting on their support of Dyce Boys’ Club’s forthcoming trip, William Lippe said: "We were delighted to be able to do our bit to support these talented, up-and-coming footballers and we wish them well in the event."

Dyce Boys’ Club chairman and under 13 team manager Ronnie Cromar added: "We would like to say a big thank you to all responsible at Willliam Lippe Architects for their very generous sponsorship.

"Whilst various fundraising events have taken place to part-fund the sojourn to the Preston M&L Easter Cup the sponsorship received from William Lippe Architects has been a welcome boost to the travel fund. Hopefully the Club can repay William Lippe Architects with some success on the playing fields at Preston."

Founded in 1985, William Lippe Architects employ 13 staff and provide top quality, professional architectural, space planning and associated services from inception to completion to residential and commercial clients throughout Scotland.
