MUNSTER Women’s Rugby team has received a timely boost after confirmation that Shannon Airport is to sponsor Fiona Hayes’ side for the next couple of seasons, beginning on Saturday with an Inter-provincial tie against Ulster in Cork.
This new agreement builds on Shannon Airport’s existing sponsorship of the Munster Men’s Rugby team and will see Shannon continue to provide Munster Rugby with connectivity to away games for both the men’s and women’s squads and their fans.
Ray O’Driscoll, Chief Operating Officer at The Shannon Airport Group said: “Shannon Airport and Munster Rugby have a long-standing friendship, being the official airport partner of the men’s team since 2017, and we are proud to strengthen this important relationship even further through our sponsorship of the women’s squad.
“Shannon Airport is the gateway of choice for most Munster fans, and we look forward to creating many more Munster memories here at the airport over the coming years.
Dave Kavanagh, Head of Commercial and Marketing at Munster Rugby added: “This is always a hugely exciting time of the year with the Women’s Interprovincial Championship on the horizon.
“I am delighted that Shannon Airport have come on board as a new partner of our talented women’s squad and we are excited to work with them over the coming seasons.”
