The Bespoke Guardians Swindon Wildcats are excited to announce a brand-new partnership with DoubleTree by Hilton Swindon, who join us as an official sponsor for the 2025/26 season. 


Located just a short distance from the Better Link Centre, DoubleTree by Hilton is perfectly placed for fans. The hotel features a variety of family-friendly facilities, including a restaurant, bar, pool table, and regular events such as princess parties and themed afternoons. Season Ticket Holders can also enjoy an exclusive 10 percent discount in the hotel’s restaurant, adding extra value to their visit. 


As part of the sponsorship, supporters will soon spot DoubleTree by Hilton Swindon branding rink side, proudly displayed on one of our advertising boards. In addition, they will be sponsoring our popular Shirt Off The Back competition at every home game, giving fans the chance to take home a player worn jersey after the final buzzer.


DoubleTree by Hilton Swindon will also be sponsoring Ed Bradley for the season. As part of this, their name will be mentioned during game night announcements, and their logo will appear on Ed’s jersey.
