Indie rockers Yard Act have been unveiled as the surprise shirt sponsors for a Suffolk girls football team.
The group, originally from Leeds, will have their logo appear on shirts worn by the Kesgrave Kestrals Under 9s Girls squad this coming season.
It's after several members of the band met members of the Kestrals team at Latitude Festival this summer.
Yard Act, composed of James Smith, Ryan Needham, Sam Shipstone and Jay Russell, established themselves as one of the hottest tickets in British music with their debut album last year.
The Overload entered the charts at #2.
The Leeds outfit aren't the first to have their logo appear on the front of a football shirt.
Ed Sheeran is the current sponsor of Ipswich Town, while rapper 50 Cent sponsors an under-14s team in Wales.
