Toyota Ireland signs up with Munster Rugby for a further three years
TOYOTA Ireland have this Thursday announced that it is to extend its partnership with Munster Rugby to June 2013 in a sponsorship deal worth €5.75million.
The three-year deal comes as a major boost to Munster as they begin the 2010-11 campaign with a pre-season friendly against the Leicester Tigers at Musgrave Park on Friday night.
Toyota's partnership with Munster - worth €5.75 million over the next three seasons - includes title sponsorship of senior Munster Rugby teams competing in the Magner's League, Heineken Cup and British and Irish Cup.
This will bring Toyota's investment to well beyond €13 million since they came on board as principal sponsors in July 2004.
It has also been confirmed this Thursday that Paul O'Connell will continue as senior captain for the coming year although the Limerick man is not expected to make a return to competitive action until December as he continues his recovery from injury.
