England Rugby confirms Castore as Official Technical Kit Partner
England Rugby and Castore have announced a new long-term partnership, that will see Castore become the official Technical Kit Partner to England Rugby.
Castore, the leading British performance sportswear brand, takes over at an exciting time for English Rugby, with the Women’s World Cup set to be hosted on home soil this summer.
Castore will become the Official Technical Kit Partner in a multi-year, long-term contract that will see it deliver all technical playing kit, training and travel wear across England Rugby’s men’s and women’s teams. Castore will also supply coaches and staff departments across the England Rugby set up, uniting players and staff under a single, high-performance identity.
“We’re really pleased to be announcing our partnership with Castore, a brand born in the North West of England by entrepreneurs Tom and Phil Beahon,” said Bill Sweeney, Rugby Football Union CEO.
“It’s an exciting time for English rugby and we know how much it means for all our players to put on an England shirt - they will wear the new Castore kit with pride.
“We look forward to working with Castore over the coming years and welcome them to the England Rugby family as a much valued partner.”
The first wave of the new Castore range will be available in May with further kit launches planned over the summer as we build up to the excitement of the Women’s Rugby World Cup. The range will be available via www.castore.com, and official England Rugby store channels, including at the England Rugby Store at Allianz Stadium and EnglandRugbyStore.com.
