Rhodri Jones, Super League chief commercial officer, said: “We are delighted to be able to continue our relationship with CSM for the 2021 season and beyond. We’ve worked with CSM over a number of years and look forward to continuing to attract further commercial partners that share our brand values and will help grow the Super League competition.”  

CSM has strong ties to domestic rugby league and notably helped to broker car retailer Cazoo’s deal to become the presenting partner of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup in England, albeit the tournament has now been postponed until next year after Australia and New Zealand withdrew citing reasons linked to the coronavirus pandemic.
