Glory days are truly here again as the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) have added yet another sponsor to their ever-growing list. The Jamaica Money Market Brokers (JMMB) Limited are now the official title sponsors of the Reggae Boyz friendly international against Costa Rica at the National Stadium tomorrow at 6:00 p.m.
The company has also signed on as a gold sponsor, for the next three years, for the Boyz who are continuing their preparation for the South Africa 2010 World Cup eliminators that will begin in June.
"We want the Reggae Boyz and all our clients and potential clients to achieve their goals and we believe that a partnership between the JFF and the JMMB is the first step in achieving them," said Keith Duncan, chief executive officer JMMB, in announcing the sponsorship yesterday at the JMMB offices in New Kingston.
Captain Horace Burrell, JFF president, is projecting that they "...will need a total of $1.3 billion over the next 30 months" to achieve its World Cup objectives.
Duncan, in response, stated that JMMB was in full support of the Reggae Boyz journey to South Africa and the company intended to leverage the sponsorship in line with JMMB's strategic goals.
Win-win situation
"We will be offering football fans the opportunity to save to attend the World Cup in South Africa in 2010. We will show them how they can achieve their goals, including free financial planning consultations, loans for fans that wish to travel to watch the Boyz in South Africa, and travel insurance, among many other exciting initiatives," he said.
Captain Burrell indicated that the JFF needs corporate sponsorship to achieve its goals.
"We want to thank JMMB for responding so quickly to us and at the same time we want to encourage other corporate entities to come on board. The benefits are tremendous," " he said.
No details of the deal were given, and Marguerite Cremin, group marketing manager, JMMB, stated that, "We cannot disclose the details of the sponsorship arrangement but it is a win-win situation for both JFF and JMMB."
T anticipation for tomorrow's game, Donna Duncan-Scott, executive director of culture, leadership and development, announced that for every goal that the Reggae Boyz score on Wednesday night JMMB will donate $50,000 to the SOS Children's Village.
The children will be accompanying the players onto the field tomorrow evening.
