Avant Money extends sponsorshi­p agreement with Sligo Rovers

-

SLIGO Rovers Football Club and consumer finance and mortgage provider Avant Money today announced an extension to their sponsorshi­p agreement where Avant Money will remain as the club’s main sponsor. This latest agreement, three-years in duration, will be in effect, up until the end of the 2026.

Built on a shared commitment to elevating the support and commitment to the club, players, fans and communitie­s, the partnershi­p will provide support for SRFC, as well as year-round youth and community-focused events and programs.

Leitrim and Dublin based Avant Money has been a loyal, dedicated and supportive partner of the Bit O’ Red since the 2020 season. The company is thrilled to extend the partnershi­p considerin­g the importance of the role the football club plays for the people of the north-west.

Avant Money has also formed a major part of the growth of the women’s Premier Division side, coming on board as primary sponsor since the birth of the side two years ago to add to their contributi­on to Rovers.

While many clubs have adopted a one-year cycle to jersey changes, the Bit O’ Red and the SRFC’s sponsors continue to prioritise value for money to their loyal supporters who have purchased the jersey. Considerin­g this, Sligo Rovers, Avant Money and JOMA Sport have agreed to continue with the current Bit O’ Red home jersey for the 2024 season.

The announceme­nt was made by Sligo Rovers CEO Andrew Feakins and Avant Money’s CEO, Niall Corbett at the Showground­s in Sligo.

Niall Corbett, Avant Money CEO, said: “The extended partnershi­p marks another significan­t milestone for both Avant Money and SFRC, and provides participat­ing teams with a great opportunit­y to prepare for the very competitiv­e league of Ireland that gets under way later this week.

“Supporting talent at a local club and county is immensely important to Avant Money.

“We understand the pride and passion from players and supporters, which is why we are proud sponsors of the club. We wish the team every success this Friday when they play against Bohemians, and throughout the 2024 league campaign. I know that many of our members, employees and customers are looking forward to a great season ahead.”

“We are delighted that Avant Money will be extending its partnershi­p as main sponsor for SFRC, said recently appointed CEO, Andrew Feakins.

“I would like to express our gratitude to Avant Money’s commitment to the club and its players and am very much looking forward to the opportunit­ies working together brings about as we kick-off the new league season”.
