The two-year deal will see CitySprint act as an Associate Club Sponsor for the highly successful Rugby League club, collaborating and supporting the club across multiple streams of activity. The new partnership with Leeds Rhinos is a further step for CitySprint as it expands its presence in the North of England and widens its support for the local Leeds community.

Last year they also became a “Business Hero” for Leeds Children’s Charity at Lineham Farm and sponsored the Royal Armouries’ Light Night.
As the newest partner of Leeds Rhinos, CitySprint will work towards making a positive impact on the community through its work with the club. This will also include working with the club’s official charity, the Leeds Rhinos Foundation, which delivers projects in the heart of the community by harnessing the power of sport to make a lasting, positive impact on individuals’ lives.

“It is an honour to partner with Leeds Rhinos. Not only are we impressed by what Leeds Rhinos achieve on the pitch, but we are incredibly inspired by the work they do to uplift the local community, and we’re excited to collaborate with them to help further their mission. By partnering with the club, we hope to make a real difference in the city and are thrilled to continue building great partnerships in Leeds and support businesses across Yorkshire.”
