The Sydney Roosters today confirmed Mortgage House of Australia will be its sleeve
sponsor through 2006, 2007 and 2008.
Mortgage House MD/CEO, Ken Sayer said the synergies between the major mortgage lender
and the Roosters were apparent both on and off the field.
"As a foundation club the Roosters are one of Australian sports most respected
brands and we are keen to help this sporting icon celebrate its Centenary in 2007
and 2008."
The Roosters are the only club to have played every year since 1908 and will heavily
promote specific events while playing its 100 th year in 2007.
Mortgage House is proud to be associated with this iconic brand and other major
companies like Samsung, Microsoft ( XBOX), City Ford, International Sports Clothing,
Easts Leagues Club, Greater Union and the Hordern Pavilion.
"We have been impressed with the professionalism of the Roosters and their
commitment to excellence. These are standards on which Mortgage House also prides
itself." Mr Sayer concluded.
Mortgage House, one of Australia’s largest non-bank lenders, was established
in 1998 and now has $3.5 billion in funds under management, operating a branch network
across NSW, VIC and QLD
Roosters’ coach Ricky Stuart is a strong believer in the brand and tradition
of the Roosters. The Roosters are a great brand, as is Samsung and now Mortgage
House makes a perfect fit.
"We have built-up both on and off the field for next season and Mortgage House
is a welcome addition to our family of sponsors. It is great to have a fully owned
Australian company on board with an Australian Sporting tradition".
"We are confident Mortgage House will be seen on our sleeve regularly at the
big end of season game".
