Cockspur Rum, already firmly established as a major brand name in cricket, is to sponsor Sportsmedia Broadcasting's nationwide radio coverage during the N Power Ashes series this summer.
The radio coverage which will be broadcast on over 125 radio stations across the United Kingdom will be supported by a number of household cricket names.
David Lloyd, Sky Sports' lead commentator will preview each Test with day to day match reports being provided by Professional Cricketers Association Ambassadors including Gladstone Small, Dean Headley, Graham Thorpe, Stephen Harmison and Simon Jones.
The radio sponsorship will provide Cockspur Rum with considerable upweight to support the brand's spend in cricket across the Test arena and the recreational game.
Pauline Clarke UK Brand Manager commenting said, 'We are delighted to be teaming up with Sportsmedia at a key time for the brand's continued development. Cockspur is making a significant investment into the UK market in order to become the most visible of all golden rums and we are looking forward to another exciting Ashes series.'
Greville Waterman, Managing Director of Sportsmedia said 'Given the massive interest in the Ashes Series we are providing our best ever coverage this summer and we are gratified that an established cricket sponsor in Cockspur Rum has recognized the opportunity the Sportsmedia Bulletin network provides for them to gain broadscale coverage of their involvement with cricket and their key brand messages'.
