Northampton Saints supporters will get the chance to rub shoulders with four of the club’s players at a special event this week to mark 25 years of backing from Travis Perkins.
Curtis Langdon, Edoardo Todaro, James Ramm and Tom James will be holding a meet and greet at the Travis Perkins branch on Harvey Reeves Road on Wednesday, 13 May between 3.30pm and 5pm.
There will be photograph opportunities with the quartet, as well as the opportunity to take part in a throwing challenge, with signed Saints merchandise up for grabs for the winners.
This season marks the 25th anniversary of Travis Perkins, the UK’s largest builders’ merchant whose head office based in Northampton, being a partner of Northampton Saints.
As part of the celebrations, Saints fans attending Friday’s Gallagher PREM home clash with Bristol will also get the chance to win prizes by taking on the Travis Perkins throwing challenge in the fan zone pre-game.
“We are extremely proud of our association with Northampton Saints which is one of, if not the, longest-standing partnerships in English sport,” said Carine Jessamine, Group Marketing & Digital Director for Travis Perkins.
“We are delighted to offer Saints fans the chance to meet and greet three team members who have played important roles in what has been a fantastic season for the club.
“We are confident it will create a great buzz in our Harvey Reeves Road branch and we encourage as many of our customers and Saints fans to come and join the fun in what is a completely free event.”
Ulundi Makhanya, Director of Commercial Partnerships at Northampton Saints, said: “The name of Travis Perkins has become synonymous with Northampton Saints and we are delighted that the partnership has had such longevity and remains so strong.
“We are delighted to mark the 25th anniversary with a couple of special events for fans to enjoy this week at what is a really exciting time for the club.
“We are hoping as many fans as possible will head to the local Travis Perkins branch just a stone’s throw from the stadium on Wednesday and then join in the throwing challenge in the fan zone ahead of another big game for the club on Friday.”
