Cork GAA’s stadium sponsorship is the story of the day so when an announcement came this morning it was seized upon. Nothing yet though on confirmation or otherwise of SuperValu Páirc.

Instead the notice was welcoming McCarthy Insurance Group as the title sponsor of the county football leagues and championships, in a new 3 year sponsorship agreement.

A good deal for a local, well established company with a long association in sport.

The McCarthy Insurance Group County Leagues will commence in March, with a significant number of games being streamed live on the Cork GAA website.

“We at McCarthy Insurance Group are thrilled to support Cork football, at all levels, throughout the county,” said CEO Brendan harrington.

“McCarthy Insurance Group look forward to the next 3 years and showcasing our continued commitment to Cork communities as we celebrate our games throughout the leagues and championships.”

“It is fitting that two such strong Cork brands are coming together in this new partnership, especially this year as the support for Cork football is growing throughout the City and County,” added Cork GAA Chair Pat Horgan.

“My heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this happen, and especially to Brendan and all at our new partners, McCarthy Insurance Group.”

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank McCarthy Insurance Group for supporting our football leagues and championships,” said Cork GAA CEO Kevin O’Donovan.

“We expect to see a vibrant season of games as we commence the Mc Carthy Insurance Group Football leagues in March, we wish all the teams the very best.”
