Two related companies are to share the football sponsorship responsibilities at Oxford United this season.

Building firm Buildbase will continue to have its name emblazoned on the club's home strip for the coming campaign, while sister organisation Plumbase will benefit from a sponsorship deal with the away shirt.

The away strip is yet to be launched but fans will be able to get a first sighting after the club's pre-season campaign, with the home kit only recently unveiled.

Oxford United chairman Kelvin Thomas said: "This is a very exciting partnership for the club.

"We have had a long-standing and very successful relationship with Buildbase, and having their sister company Plumbase on the away shirt is going to be very distinctive and eye-catching."

Buildbase has been a football sponsor at Oxford United since 2001, making the company the club's longest ever continuous sponsor.

Oxford United have been playing in the Blue Square Premier League since being relegated from League Two in the 2005/06 season.
