International Power & Marine Group (IPM Group) has announced a new sponsorship partnership with Barry RFC.
The sponsorship will contribute to equipment and facility investment, and community engagement programmes that ensure rugby in Barry remains accessible for young people and adults.
The Group's operations were previously headquartered at Palmers Vale Business Centre.
Randall Smith, CEO, International Power & Marine Group, said:
“Barry has always been a community defined by resilience, teamwork and pride, qualities that resonate strongly with us here at IPM Group. Partnering with Barry RFC allows us to invest directly into a club that sits at the heart of the town and continues to inspire people across generations. We're delighted to support their development and to stand alongside a pillar of local identity.”
Barry RFC will be joining forces with IPM Group for a beach clean-up locally over the coming months as well as getting involved in other collaborative activities.
Matthew Hewitson, Barry RFC, said:
“We are thrilled to welcome IPM Group as a sponsor partner. Their global reputation may be impressive, but what stood out most was their understanding and shared love of Barry's heritage and their commitment to our community. This partnership will make a tangible difference throughout the club, from minis and juniors to our senior squad.”
