Iggesund sponsorship package for county ARL

IGGESUND Paperboard has agreed to sponsor both the forthcoming county championship and the Cumbria Cup final in a fantastic double-header for Cumbrian amateur rugby league.

The Swedish-owned company, which has produced packaging board for the tobacco, food and pharmaceutical industries at its Siddick mill for the past 40 years, will provide a playing strip for the Cumbria side, as part of the deal.

In thanking the firm for its backing, Cumbria County secretary Joan Blair said she looked forward to a long and successful association with Iggesund.

It is not the first time the company has been involved with ARL, having sponsored the Allerdale and Carlisle service area in the past.
