Chattanooga FC News Release
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. - Chattanooga-based nonprofit health system Erlanger Health becomes the club's new front-of-kit partner in a multi-year agreement, uniting two organizations with a shared commitment to community. The new-look kits will debut on Sunday, March 1, when Chattanooga FC hosts Crown Legacy FC in the club's home opener (3:00 p.m. ET).
Earlier this week, Chattanooga FC announced its partnership with Erlanger as the club's Official and Exclusive Health Care Provider.
"We're proud to partner with Erlanger, a Chattanooga-based company that shares our values and mission in intentionally caring for our community," said Chattanooga FC General Manager Rachel Hanson. "This partnership is a beautiful reminder of how strong our community is when we come together and it goes far beyond a jersey. We look forward to many more years with Erlanger."
"We're excited for this significant partnership with Erlanger, as both organizations promote and prioritize an active and healthy Chattanooga," said Chattanooga FC Primary Owner Davis Grizzard. "A core value of our family business has always been about supporting youth in having spaces to be active outside and to live a healthy life, and Erlanger has a long history of doing the same thing in compassionately caring for people."
"Chattanooga FC and Erlanger have a lot in common. We're both local, deeply rooted organizations that focus on caring for our communities through health. Erlanger is passionate about caring for people where they live, work, and play, and we value the partnerships we have within the Chattanooga community. And just as CFC has programs all across our region, Erlanger has an unparalleled coordination of care across three states. As we move forward together, we're excited to find ways to deepen our partnership with Chattanooga FC and the community."
Headquartered in Chattanooga and led by President and Chief Executive Officer Jim Coleman, Erlanger is a health system that comprises seven hospitals and emergency departments, provides medical services for a fleet of six helicopters, and offers exceptional, comprehensive care at all of life's stages. With a history of over a century, Erlanger continues its founding mission to compassionately care for people.
"Extending the Erlanger name outside of our healthcare spaces and into areas more associated with recreation and play allows us an unparalleled opportunity to reach our community in new and exciting ways. Our foundation lies upon serving as an economic engine for our area, and supporting our population's body, mind, and spirit."
The new Erlanger-branded kits will make their on-field debut on Sunday, March 1, when Chattanooga FC hosts Crown Legacy FC at Finley Stadium (3:00 p.m. ET).
