Our Sponsors

Bill McLaren’s name will remain synonymous with the game of rugby union to thousands throughout the world. As the ‘voice of rugby’ he was known for his fairness and honesty and for bringing our wonderful game to life through his inimitable and for ever unsurpassable commentary.

There are a number of initiatives which our executive team will be pursuing, but none more important than the association of companies which might support and share in the development of the described aims:

  • To develop and promote the sport of rugby union and its values
  • To encourage and provide sporting opportunities for young people
  • To create an educative centre which will include the Bill McLaren Archive
