SHEFFIELD bosses will generously donate 10 per cent of any major sponsorship packages sold to Sheffield Children’s Hospital.
It comes following further talks as the club enhance their backing of what promises to be a big year for the charity.
Tigers co-owner Damien Bates said: “Both ourselves and the team at Sheffield Children’s Hospital have been very pleased with the response and reaction since we announced we weren’t going to have a main team sponsor as such this season and instead would support what is such an important local charity.
“We’ve already pencilled in a few official collections throughout the season but we wanted to do a little bit more.
“We’ve decided to donate 10 per cent of any of our major sponsorship packages to the hospital - so anybody who opts to buy one of our Platinum, Gold, Silver or Bronze Sponsorship Packages for this season, we’re going to give 10 per cent of that initial cost to the Children’s Hospital.
“We’re really pleased to see some new companies and new individuals already giving us their backing and we look forward to welcoming more sponsors on board between now and the start of the season which is just around the corner.”
Sheffield get their season underway next Monday (March 30, 7.30pm) at Belle Vue in the Knockout Cup Northern Section before hosting the Aces at Owlerton on Thursday, April 2 (7.30pm).
