The Canberra Raiders will start the 2005 National Rugby League season with a full list of major sponsors, announcing a two-year sleeve sponsorship with Aristocrat Technologies Australia Pty Ltd this afternoon.
Aristocrat, a global leader in gaming technology, has been a sponsor of the Raiders since the clubs inception in 1982.
That long-term partnership will be on display on the sleeves of the Canberra Raiders when they run out for Saturday nights opening match of the 2005 season against the Newcastle Knights at Canberra Stadium.
The Raiders have now filled the sponsorships on their playing strip for 2005. Aristocrat joins major sponsor Fone Zone and shorts sponsor Canberra Milk.
Raiders General Manager Don Furner said he was delighted Aristocrats loyal support of the Raiders would be more visible in 2005-06.
Aristocrat has been sponsoring the Raiders for more than 23 years so its great to be able to have their name on the sleeves of our jumpers for the next two years, Mr Furner said.
Aristocrat has been a major partner in helping grow our group of seven licensed clubs which, in turn, has allowed the Canberra Raiders to develop as a rugby league power.
By completing the sponsorships on our playing strip for 2005, it shows the Raiders are an attractive sporting brand.
Former Manly player and Australian international Ian Thomson is Aristocrats Area Sales Manager for the ACT, Northern NSW, Queensland and the Northern Territory.
A former player with the Queanbeyan Blues in the Canberra competition, Thomson said Aristocrat was proud to increase its level of sponsorship at the Raiders in 2005.
Aristocrat has been associated with the Raiders major backer, the Queanbeyan Leagues Club, since its foundation in the early 1960s, Thomson said.
Aristocrat has always had a strong presence in the ACT and surrounding regions and its great to further acknowledge that relationship with this sleeve sponsorship.
Aristocrat was founded in 1953 and has offices located in Australia, the United States, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, South Africa, and Japan. They are the premium supplier of ground-breaking technology and services to the international gaming industry.
The diverse product line-up extends from electronic gaming machines to complete gaming solutions including systems, services and ancillary equipment.
