University of Glamorgan continue their partnership with Ponty RFC

The University of Glamorgan are committed to extending their partnership with Pontypridd RFC into the new season, with the continuation of the “Family Stand” branding at Sardis Road.

The long standing link between the two institutions is further endorsed as members of the Pontypridd squad – the likes of Ken Knaggs and Ed Siggery  - are currently studying at the University.

Announcing the extended sponsorship deal, Pontypridd RFC Marketing Executive Gareth Howells said:

"We are delighted that the University of Glamorgan are continuing to support our club. To have such a prestigious institution continuing as a major partner of Pontypridd RFC with the Family Stand sponsorship is an indication of both the club's and University’s ambition to develop their community links further.

We hope we can now build on this continued partnership for the future - this is excellent news for the club in its drive for success in 2010-11."

Peter Crofts, Director of Marketing and Student Recruitment at the University of Glamorgan commented,

"We are pleased to be continuing our sponsorship of the "The University of Glamorgan Family Stand" once again this year. 

The University has long been a supporter of Pontypridd RFC and sponsorship of the stand gives us a great presence at Sardis Road.

This year, the University will launch its brand new Glamorgan Sports Park facility which will give both our students, and local clubs like Pontypridd, access to some of the UK's best training facilities."
