RAW rugby sponsorship

RAW Capital Partners has signed major sponsorship deals with Guernsey and Richmond rugby clubs for the 24/25 season.  

The Guernsey-based specialist investment manager is now the match ball sponsor for Guernsey Raiders Rugby Club. It is also the headline sponsor of Richmond Rugby Club in London, one of the world's oldest rugby clubs (formed in 1861) and a founding member of the Rugby Football Union. The sponsorship deal includes branding on the front of the Men’s, Women’s and Youth Boys and Girls kits. 

“We are delighted and very thankful to welcome RAW Capital Partners to the Guernsey Raiders family,” said Gary Haycock-West, Guernsey Raiders Chairman. 
 
“It’s no secret that raising funds for our representative teams to keep playing rugby at a high level is vital, however for us it is much more than that. We are excited to build and develop the partnership with RAW and can’t wait to see their teams at Foote's Lane this season.”  
 
Tim Parkes, Chief Executive Officer for RAW Capital Partners, said the investment manager is delighted to secure the high-profile sponsorship deal and support the club. 
 
“We appreciate how important the Guernsey Raiders Rugby Club is to the local community, and it is a pleasure to support them. We too are looking forward to seeing their progress, and enjoying the games, this season,” he added. 
 
Founded in 1913, the Guernsey Raiders is an RFU associated club that offers adult and youth rugby for both men and women.  

Nick Preston, Chairman of Richmond Rugby, said: “We are delighted to welcome RAW Capital Partners on board as our new main sponsor for the 2024/25 season and we are excited about this new relationship, which we hope is the start of a long-term partnership.” 

“We look forward to supporting RAW in their efforts to grow their profile both locally and nationally and all our teams will wear the RAW-branded Richmond shirts with great pride as we look forward to a successful season ahead.”  

Ben Nichols, Managing Director of RAW Capital Partners, added: “Richmond Rugby is rugby’s original rugby club – a great partner to have as we look to raise the profile of our business, and we wish all the Richmond Rugby teams the very best of luck in the coming season.”
