Bartlett Group, the long-established independent chartered insurance broker and wealth management specialist, with offices and associates worldwide, is once again proud to be the main sponsor of Rugby League Ireland, the Wolfhound A team, as they take on the USA team, the Tomahawks, in the Donnybrook Cup.
Bartlett Group has been a supporter of Rugby League for over 60 years and is a keen advocate of the sport and its growth. Rugby League is fast gaining popularity both in Ireland and the USA, and the Donnybrook Cup has played a big part in this.
Ian Roberts, Director at Bartlett, commented: “We’re delighted to continue our support for the Ireland Team in this year’s Donnybrook Cup and to be a part of the continued expansion of the greatest game, both in Ireland and the USA. Following the Tomahawks’ recent qualification for the 2013 Rugby League World Cup, I’m sure this year’s game will provide the action-packed, hard-fought spectacle that the Donnybrook Cup has become known for.”
The history of the annual Donnybrook Cup match between Ireland and the USA goes back 16 years. The match this year will be played at the Widener Stadium in Philadelphia on the 17th March 2012. Last year the Wolfhounds were victorious in a 26 – 8 win.
