A popular alcoholic drinks business has agreed a new multi-year partnership with a West Region rugby side.
Birkmyre Rugby Club were delighted to announce on Wednesday (September 25) that they'd signed a three-year sponsorship deal with well-known drinks manufacturer Eldorado Tonic Wine.
Starting this season, the drinks company's logo will appear on the front of the 1st XV strips until the end of the 26/27 season. It will also appear on a selection of training & match day kit.
Christopher Miller, Eldorado Chief Commercial Officer commented: "We are delighted to be associated with Birkmyre Rugby Club.
"They are a young side with a great deal of potential and they did extremely well to win their league last season.
"Hopefully they will be challenging for promotion again during this campaign. We are delighted to be part of their ongoing journey."
Birkmyre stand-off, David Cruickshank, was joined by group CEO Simon Hannah at their new warehouse in Renfrew to formally launch and recognise the agreement.
The Kilmacolm club have taken a bit of time to adjust to their new surroundings in the Arnold Clark West Region League Division Two, having won one of their opening five games.
That came in the form of a resounding win over Clydebank on their third outing of the season.
They're looking to get back to winning ways this Saturday when they travel to North Lanarkshire to play Cumbernauld.
