Numbers add up for rugby league side as accountancy firm confirms sponsorship

360 Chartered Accountants has signed a sponsorship deal with Wakefield Trinity Rugby League club.

The deal, which begins immediately and will carry on throughout the 2023 season, includes sponsoring the club’s half-time and full-time social media posts, the Winning Wednesday Draw and other opportunities during the year.

With their place in the Super League secure for next year, work has also just started on Wakefield’s long-awaited multi-million pound redevelopment of the Belle Vue stadium.

Adrian Hunter, managing director at 360, which recently launched 360 Sport Finance and Mentoring, a new service aimed specifically at the sporting sector, said: “We are massive sports fans at 360 and are really excited to be partnering with Wakefield Trinity.

“There’s so much potential for development at the club, particularly with the new stadium and we want to be part of that.

“We also have a developing portfolio of clients in and around West Yorkshire, so this has come at the perfect time for us.”

Michael Carter, chief executive of Wakefield Trinity, added: “We are already planning our campaign to maintain our Super League status next season, so it’s great to have 360 on board as a sponsor and we look forward to working with them for the foreseeable future.”
