Hewden, the national, multi-product hire specialist, has announced a new three-year partnership agreement with Aviva Premiership rugby club, Sale Sharks.

The agreement recognises Hewden as an official club partner, with branding on the shirtsleeve for home, away and European matches.

Commenting on the agreement, Gary Tasker, Commercial Director for Sale Sharks said, “The Sharks are pleased to join forces with such a progressive and energetic organisation as Hewden.

The partnership supports the Sharks’ community development programme, including a mini tag tournament played by local junior clubs at half time on match days. Over the season, this programme donates over 440 tickets to local clubs, in addition to tag rugby equipment.

To officially launch the agreement, Hewden is offering the chance for two under 15’s junior rugby teams to win a coaching and training ground experience at Sharks’ state of the art training centre in Carrington.
