ENGLAND RUGBY LEAGUE’S OFFICIAL ST. GEORGE?S DAY CELEBRATION
THE 09/10 PUMA® ENGLAND RL KIT IS HERE
LONDON, 23rd April. The 09/10 PUMA® England Rugby League Kit has been official launched today on St. George’s Day by www.RugbyLeagueOnline.co.uk. As an emblem of pride across England, the cross of St George empowers this kit design and it seemed only right that this day was chosen to mark the identity of a team whose campaign on home soil later this year is so highly anticipated.
Phil Williams, Marketing Manager, RFL states: “With the Four Nations on the horizon this autumn I’m sure fans will relish wearing this new England shirt with pride. It was striking during the World Cup just how many England fans were out there in Australia wearing England’s colours and I hope we’ll see the same this year starting with the international against France in June.”
Roger Harrison, Marketing Director, PUMA UK, said: “The innovative 09/10 England RL Kit is a powerful reminder to Rugby League supporters of England’s national identity. In a few months time, the team will walk out wearing the intimidating and authoritative design, backed by eager supporters that share the national spirit and determination that the St. George symbol has come to stand for in English sport today.’
The England kit has today been launched at www.RugbyLeagueOnline.co.uk alongside the official new Leisurewear and Accessories ranges which are also available to buy now. The team’s official Trainingwear range is due to be launched in advance of the summer weather on the website from 29th May 2009.
