Rugby:The long-standing relationship between the IRFU and AIB's sponsorship with the domestic All-Ireland League is to end after the finals take place on May 8th.
The deal has been in place for 13 years and is one of the longest-standing sponsorship deals in Irish sport.
“I would like to most sincerely thank AIB for its generous support and backing. The bank has been a significant partner to the IRFU during this time and an important supporter of club rugby in Ireland,” said IRFU president John Callaghan.
Maurice Crowley, AIB general manager added: “We feel that after 13 years, our sponsorship of the AIB League and Cup has come to a natural conclusion.
“AIB has thoroughly enjoyed its partnership with the IRFU. We look forward to working with them to identify a new project with which we can continue our support and development of rugby at a local level as well as continuing our very successful relationship with the IRFU.”
