'In Vodafone
we have found a partner who shares our passion for connectivity, and we are
delighted to have them on board to enhance the experience of the Lions fans
across the world. Head coach Gatland added I am excited to welcome aboard
Vodafone as team sponsor for the Tour next summer.
'The key to
a successful Lions Tour is about players coming together quickly and staying united
behind one common goal – to win a Test series against the World Champions in
South Africa. I cannot think of a brand that knows more about bringing people
together than Vodafone.
I am sure
they will play an important role in supporting the team on and off the pitch,
as well as ensuring the Tour is a unique experience for all Lions supporters.
