The IT consultants have been associated with Wolves for 18 years and were main shirt sponsor for the 2015/16 season.

With online gaming firm W88 named new first-team shirt sponsor for Wolves' return to the Premier League, an alternative sponsor was sought for junior shirts – and managing director Laurie Dalrymple was thrilled to secure the deal with Silverbug.

“We are absolutely delighted to broaden an already long-term and fruitful partnership with Silverbug," he said. “For almost two decades Silverbug have provided an exceptional service to Wolves, and have been involved in some of our largest projects, including the development of the new Stan Cullis Stand and the revamp of the Sir Jack Hayward Training Ground.

“In addition, Silverbug managing director Owen Daley is currently leading on a huge IT infrastructure project this summer as we get Molineux ready for Premier League football; and has actually based himself at the stadium, such is his dedication to the club.

“As they did during their tenure as first-team sponsor, they are once again allowing us to change their logo to black for aesthetic reasons, which we are truly grateful of.

“Wolves and Silverbug share the same core values and we consider them part of the Wolves family - I couldn’t think of a better company to partner with as junior shirt sponsor for such an exciting season.”

Silverbug managing director Owen Daley said: “We are deeply proud of our long association with Wolves and are delighted to partner on a project like this.

“Wolves were one of our first clients 18 years ago, and the club continues to be part of the fabric at Silverbug.

“Part of our business focuses on IT support for primary and secondly schools, so along with our family ethos, it really feels like a perfect fit.

“We believe it is important to support projects in the community and the younger generation, and we are honoured to be junior front of shirt sponsor for such an historic and exciting season.”
