New sponsor for Mayo GAA Under 21 Football Championship

Mayo GAA has announced McHale Agri, Forest & Garden as the new sponsors of the Under 21 Football Championship.

Welcoming the new sponsorship, Mayo GAA County Board cathaoirleach Seamus Tuohy said the Under 21 championship is a wonderful competition that deserves support, and will now get a much higher profile in the club calendar.

He elaborated: “This new partnership with McHale Agri, Forest & Garden is great news for the competition as it will shine a spotlight on the exciting new emerging talent in the county in the coming weeks. I would also like to thank the clubs and all the coaches for their support for the competition as this is the perfect platform to showcase new players to the Under 20 and senior football management teams in Mayo.

“I am sure Kevin McStay and his backroom team will also be keeping a very close eye on teams as they advance to the latter stages, and I know many of these young players will pull on the senior jersey in the not-too-distance future.”

A spokesperson for McHale Agri, Forest & Garden said: “We are very pleased to announce sponsorship of the Mayo GAA Under 21 championship for the next three years. Our business is built on serving customers, mainly from farming sector, sports clubs and rural dwellers with lots of grass to mow!

“Since the launch of our business in 2008, it is very clear that a very high percentage of our customers are GAA volunteers and supporters throughout the county and beyond. We are delighted to be associated with Mayo GAA in what looks to be a really well structured competition offering football to young adult players and creating a bridge to junior intermediate and senior football in the near future.

“We wish all clubs the very best of luck competing in the McHale Agri, Forest & Garden Under 21 Football Championship this year.”

The McHale Agri, Forest & Garden Mayo GAA Under 21 Football Championship kicks off this weekend, with all fixture details to be found on www.mayogaa.com.
