The Saints and Pilkington Activ™ march on to Wembley!
The Saints will play French side Catalan Dragons on 25th August in a Wembley match that will be spiced by an element of International rivalry, with the Pilkington Activ™ brand being carried forth into a battle that will be watched by millions as Saints defend their title and enter their fifth Cup Final appearance in just eight years.
With high hopes that Saints will go on to make another appearance in the Engage Super League Cup Final to be played at Old Trafford in October, the sponsorship means that the Pilkington Activ™ brand will once again receive a run-out in front of what is expected to be a capacity crowd at the match, and millions watching on television.
Pilkington Marketing Communications Manager Julia Berkin says that the excitement at Pilkington’s St Helens head office is palpable: “A huge number of Pilkington staff are Saints fans and even those not so committed are now really excited about the Wembley final and the prospect of more glory if the team continues to do well in the Super League. The history between Pilkington and Saints goes back more than a century and we are very pleased to be associated with the club as they make history at Wembley.”
