Meccabingo.com to sponsor Wigan Warriors
One of the biggest United Kingdom gaming brands, Mecca Bingo has signed a new sponsorship deal with rugby outfit, Wigan Warriors. The deal will start before the season starts this year.
Mecca Bingo is one of the most popular bingo sites in the UK and attracts thousands of enthusiastic bingo players everyday. Mecca offers bingo players the chance to win huge jackpots of money online or at their bingo halls.
Previously, the rugby league team Wigan Warriors were sponsored by JJB, the retail sports firm. Wigan Warriors are recognised, as one of the most successful and prestigious rugby clubs in the world.
The new sponsorship deal will be beneficial to both partners. The logo of the bingo operator will also appear on the rugby team shirts.
In a press statement, the managing director of Rank Entertainment said that Mecca Bingo was proud to be associated with Wigan Warriors and the rugby league. He also added that Meccabingo.com is looking forward to support the rugby team, both on and off the rugby field.
Mike Hogan, the chief executive of Wigan Warriors, also welcomed the new sponsorship deal and was pleased that the rugby club is partnered for the 2009 rugby season with a national organisation.
