Spinningfields sponsor Sale Sharks

Allied London's Spinningfields and its estate management company Capital Properties have signed up as sponsors of Sale Sharks for the 2012/13 season.

The season-long deal will see the Capital Properties logo on the new Sale Sharks' home shirts, and the Spinningfields logo on the away and European shirts.

The home shirts, from new kit supplier Canterbury, will be unveiled at an open training session in Spinningfields on this Friday, 13 July. A pop-up shop will open for the day on Hardman Square to provide people with the chance to be the first to buy a shirt, while also getting the chance to meet the players and have their shirts signed.

Mike Ingall, chief executive of Allied London, said: "There is a strong synergy between Capital Properties, Spinningfields and Sale Sharks and a sponsorship deal felt like a natural progression for the partnership. With the move to Salford City stadium and the new signings, there is a lot to look forward to next season and we're delighted to be able to support that."

Reserve a 'pitchside' picnic bench at the training session in Hardman Square, starting at midday, for £100+VAT. The first 200 places sold get a free match ticket to Sharks' opening game at the new stadium against Heineken Cup Champions Leinster on Friday 24 August.
