Financial services company Sun Life has renewed its partnership with the Rugby Canada national governing body.
The agreement names Sun Life Global Investments as the official sponsor of the Canadian rugby sevens team for the upcoming World Rugby Monaco Repechage, which will serve as the final qualifying event ahead of this summer’s Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Sun Life Global Investment’s branding will feature on the front of Canada’s playing jerseys during the tournament.
Sun Life also served as Canada's shirt sponsor at this year’s Hong Kong Sevens event and has supported the team for a number of years.
The World Rugby Monaco Repechage will be held this weekend at the Stade Louis II stadium, with the winner qualifying for Rio 2016. This summer will mark the first time rugby has been contested at a Games since 1924.
