Mitre extends football deal in English, Scottish leagues

Sports equipment manufacturer Mitre has renewed partnerships with the English Football League and Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL).

The extensions will run for four years, from 2015-16 to 2018-19.

Under the agreements, Mitre will provide its Delta Hyperseam football to both organisations.

The English Football League operates the three divisions below the top-tier Premier League and the League Cup and Johnstone’s Paint Trophy knockout tournament. The SPFL operates Scotland’s top-tier Premiership and the Championship, League 1 and League 2.

Mitre has provided the official match football for the English Football League for more than 40 years and has also served in the role for the Scottish football divisions since 1998.
