The Ladies Gaelic Football Association has announced currentaccount.ie – the current account from your Credit Union – as new sponsors of the LGFA’s All-Ireland Ladies Club Football Championships.

Currentaccount.ie will also sponsor the LGFA’s annual All-Ireland Club 7s blitz day and National Volunteer awards.

This new partnership will cover a three-year term – 2021-2023 inclusive – and is announced on International Credit Union Day 2020.

Currentaccount.ie will now become title sponsors of the LGFA’s flagship club competitions – namely the currentaccount.ie All-Ireland Ladies Junior, Intermediate and Senior Club Championships – as well as the All-Ireland Club 7s competitions, which are normally held on the eve of the TG4 All-Ireland Finals.

In addition, the LGFA’s annual Volunteer awards, which have been in existence since the inaugural 2017 winners were honoured in February 2018, will benefit hugely from currentaccount.ie’s additional support and title sponsorship.

Ladies Gaelic Football Association President Marie Hickey said: “We are hugely excited to welcome on board currentaccount.ie as the new official sponsor of our All-Ireland Club Championships, and our annual All-Ireland Club 7s.

“currentaccount.ie will also provide valuable support for our LGFA Volunteer of the Year awards, which have been a huge success since our inaugural presentation night in February 2018.

“These are challenging times for all of us in sport and business but currentacount.ie have shown incredible faith in the LGFA by agreeing to come on board as sponsors – and I wish to thank them most sincerely for that.”

Ladies Gaelic Football Association CEO Helen O’Rourke added: “We have been looking for a sponsor for our All-Ireland Club Championships for some time – and we believe that the presence of currentaccount.ie will take our competitions to a whole new level.

“The LGFA and the Credit Union network are very much volunteer-driven organisations with, a shared ethos and values, and this new partnership is a wonderful fit for us.

“We look forward to working with currentaccount.ie during the course of the three-year relationship – and it is most timely to announce our sponsorship on International Credit Union Day.”
