Cricket Ireland has teamed up with Flogas in an official partnership. The agreement, which begins with immediate effect, will see Flogas become the official energy partner to Cricket Ireland.

The agreement was signed today at the Flogas Head Office in Drogheda.

John Rooney, Managing Director, Flogas Ireland, said: "Flogas Ireland is delighted to be teaming up with Cricket Ireland and becoming their official energy partner. As Ireland's only all-Ireland supplier of both LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and natural gas, we are uniquely placed to meet the energy needs of Cricket Ireland's 150 constituent clubs, whether they are on or off the natural gas grid, North or South.


"As an Irish-founded and Irish-owned company, we are eagerly supporting the senior men's team competing in the upcoming ICC World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. We wish Phil Simmons and his team the very best of luck in the World Cup and we look forward to working alongside them and the Cricket Ireland team in helping to grow the sport into the future."

Warren Deutrom, Chief Executive, Cricket Ireland, added: "Cricket Ireland is delighted to welcome Flogas on board as the latest addition to the Cricket Ireland Commercial Programme as our new Official Energy Partner. Flogas is an all-Ireland brand which we believe will benefit many of our clubs with reduced energy costs into the future.

"The timing couldn't be better as Cricket Ireland embark on an unprecedented year of activity in 2015 both at home and abroad. 2015 will no doubt enable Flogas to form a deeper connection with Irish cricket which is growing at an unprecedented rate."
