Sponsorship deal ‘perfect fit’ for Perth Super Leagues
The Perth Curling Super Leagues are one of the oldest and most competitive in the world.
It gives juniors and club curlers a chance to pit their wits against World and European champions along with Olympic medallist and Courier Sport columnist Eve Muirhead.
Now a new three-year sponsorship deal has been agreed with leading insurance specialists Rankin Risk Solutions.
The four divisions attract in excess of 50 teams each year, with competitors coming from all over the country.
Announcing the new deal, former Olympic team coach David Hay, chairman of Perth Curling, said: “I am delighted and very grateful for Rankin Risk Solutions support and sponsorship of Perth’s premier curling league which continues to go from strength to strength.
“Our association is a perfect fit. As a new and growing business based in the City of Perth, they exhibit the same drive and determination that many of our curlers have shown over the years.”
Ewan MacDonald, managing partner of Rankin Risk Solutions’ parent company MacDonald Group, based in Inverness, said: “Curling has always played an important part in my life and having been involved with Perth Curling Club for many years, I am absolutely delighted to be able to offer support to the Perth Super Leagues.
“This opportunity has come at a great time for the group, having recently expanded our services to the Perth and Kinross area we welcome the increased exposure that this sponsorship will provide.”
The first Rankin Risk Solutions Super League games kick off on Wednesday.
