A Black & White partnership

Gareth Howells, Sales & Marketing Executive for Pontypridd RFC, is delighted to announce a significant 2-year partnership with Murphy's.

The partnership will see the famous Murphy's logo placed on the back of the players' match shirts and training kit, and on all replica shirts as well as selected leisurewear. The famous Murphy's logo will also be present around the ground, so keep a look out for further developments!

I am delighted that such a Worldwide brand is to become a partner with Pontypridd RFC, showing both the club's and brewer's ambition to develop further. This is another excellent partnership for the club and will complement the club’s other partners in readiness for what should be an excellent season, both on and off the field.

A Comment from the Club
Ponty Rugby is delighted that Murphy's, one of the most popular stouts in the UK, has decided to become one of its sponsors for the next two years. Murphy's is part of the InBev Group, which is the world’s leading brewer; and, in addition to selling Murphy's, the club will also serve other famous brands such as Stella Artois, Becks, and Bass.

The colour of a pint of Murphy's, pitch black and creamy white, perfectly compliment the team colours of Ponty Rugby and is yet another excellent name to add to our growing number of quality sponsors. We know this sponsorship will be successful because, with Murphy's and Ponty Rugby, it brings two quality teams together.

Murphy's Irish stout
First established in Cork 1856, Murphy’s Irish stout is a smooth creamy mellow flavour at 4% ABV. Dispensed using fast flow technology that pours the perfect pint in seconds. With Murphy's Irish stout, "Why wait?"

Neil Wildin, Key Account Manager for InBev New Business said:

Murphy's are proud to be sponsors of Pontypridd Rugby Football Club. Pontypridd RFC have a fantastic history and pedigree in the world of Rugby and this is a perfect fit for both our brands. We look forward with tremendous excitement to a fantastic partnership and many successful seasons with Pontypridd RFC.
