Dundalk Football Club have announced a new partnership with 888 which will see one of the world’s leading online betting and gaming companies become the club’s main sponsor for the 2024 season.
The agreement, which the club say is the biggest commercial deal in Dundalk Football Club’s history, will see 888 branding displayed on the front of the first-team’s jerseys and throughout Oriel Park.
888 Casino will be emblazoned on the front of the new home shirt as well as the first-team’s warm-up gear, with 888 Sport displayed on the away jersey and 888 Poker logo will adorn the club’s third kit.
Infant and youth jerseys, as well as a limited number of adult shirts, will not feature 888 branding.
Dundalk FC owner Brian Ainscough said:
“We are thrilled to welcome 888 on board as our new shirt sponsor and principal club partner.
“This is a significant commercial deal for the club and we have been struck by the enthusiasm and support already shown by the team at 888.
“We look forward to building a strong relationship with them.”
Alexis Zamboglou Managing Director of William Hill | 888 UK & Ireland said:
“This is an extra special one for me, growing up in Dundalk I am delighted that we are partnering with Dundalk FC for the upcoming 2024 season, we feel this is great opportunity for 888 but also for the League of Ireland.
“At 888 we hope to support the League by producing dedicated content this season to widen the reach of the league.”
Both jerseys will be available at the Club Shop at Oriel Park from Friday 22nd December until Sunday 24th December at 2 o’ clock.
Further updates will be provided via Dundalk FC social media channels.
Pre-sales will be available from the Club Shop on (Wednesday) this afternoon at 2pm with full payment required.
Sponsor logo will not appear on kids jerseys and adult jerseys if requested.
