Vodafone is to become the front of shirt sponsor for the senior men's Wales rugby team next season.
The Welsh Rugby Union have secured a major new multi-year partnership in a landmark deal which sees Vodafone become principal partner of the men’s senior squad and pathway teams. Starting on July 1, Vodafone be the principal partner of men’s, women’s and pathway (U20s and U18s) rugby in Wales, uniting all teams within one partnership and committed to growing rugby at all levels in Wales, the union says.
It means Wales men's new kit, which will be unveiled next month, will have a different look. The jersey worn by Taulupe Faletau in launch photographs is not the new kit. The new Rugby World Cup jersey wi]ll not feature a sponsor but the kit which will be worn for the following two years will see Vodafone replace Cazoo.
