Rotherham Rugby Union today announced their new major sponsor and their new name. The name forms part of the sponsorship deal and if initially for 2 years with an option to extend to three. Read on to find out

So the new name for Rotherham is......(Where is my drums when I need them...)

Rotherham Titans.

Ohhh Ahhh. It could have been worse I suppose or sound very commercial like the HairyQueens. It sounds rather erm...hard!

The new Sponsor is: Titan Environmental Limited, part of the Kingspan Group PLC

They seem to make tanks but their website is down so I can't find any more information about them.

Here are a few quotes from the Official Site

Managing Director for Titan Environmental, David Drury said:

“The ascendancy of Rotherham over the past few seasons has many parallels for our business and we see them as an ideal partner in aiding us to gain wider recognition amongst our customers throughout the country, not just the north of England.”

“Titan Environmental and the Kingspan Group PLC has a history of links with sport and we look forward to a successful partnership with Rotherham Rugby Union Football Club”

Commercial Director for Rotherham Rugby Paul Kimberley said:

“We are delighted to be the rugby club Titan has decided to back. The two year deal with an option for a third year reflects a substantial commitment from them and also highlights the belief that so many people have in the future of the club.”

Lets just hope the money was good and the money will be put to a good use!
