Partnership Agreement with Benben Sportswear and Umbro

Benben Sportswear and Umbro are excited to announce their new partnership with the
Missouri State High School Soccer Coaches Association.

Benben Sportswear will provide each coach that orders Umbro uniforms, sweats, or other equipment from Benben Sportswear an Umbro coaching package worth 10% of the total order. Umbro will provide uniforms to the Missouri State High School Soccer Coaches Association for its All-Star Game. Umbro will also provide a coach's gift to each MSHSSCA member that attends the NSCAA Convention.

Meg Benben has operated Benben Sportswear for over thirty years, first in St. Louis and then in Kansas City. Matt Benben joined her in the business in 2004 after serving as the equipment manager of the Kansas City Wizards for three seasons. Benben Sportswear supplies team uniforms, team footwear, and spirit apparel to clubs, grade schools, high schools and colleges throughout Kansas, Missouri, and southern Illinois.

Umbro, Ltd., a subsidiary of NIKE, Inc., is the original Manchester based soccer brand that invented sportswear and sports tailoring. Umbro’s first major soccer kit was made for Manchester City in 1934, a kit they won the FA Cup in. Today, the company combines its heritage in sports tailoring with modern soccer culture to create groundbreaking and iconic football apparel, footwear and equipment that blend performance and style.

"We are thrilled to be working officially with the Missouri soccer coaches, some of whom I go back with thirty years! Matt and I are so appreciative of the great relationships we have with our current clients and look forward to serving the other members of the association.  Umbro is a great partner to have because their stuff looks great and they deliver on time." - Meg Benben
