Ellisons is proud to announce our new partnership with Bury St Edmunds Rugby Union Football Club as the official Match Ball Sponsor for the Men’s and Women’s 1st XVs.
Ellisons have long been committed supporters of the Bury Rugby family, recognising the club as part of their distinguished portfolio of organisations and community initiatives across the region. This latest step reflects not only their continued investment in rugby at The Haberden, but also their ambition to ensure maximum visibility and engagement with our members, supporters, and wider community.
Founded over 250 years ago, Ellisons is a Top 200 UK law firm and one of the region’s most established and fastest-growing practices. With a partner-led, multidisciplinary team, they provide a full range of services to businesses and individuals across the UK and internationally, through their membership of the Alliott Global Alliance. Locally, Ellisons operate offices in Colchester, Chelmsford, Ipswich, Bury St Edmunds, Frinton-on-Sea and London.
As part of their rebrand and in discussions around sponsorship development for the 2025/26 season, Ellisons embraced the opportunity to become exclusive match ball sponsor – ensuring their refreshed branding is front and centre at every 1st XV home fixture. With our Men’s 1st XV competing in the fourth tier of English rugby and our trailblazing Women’s 1st XV competing in the second tier, exposure across both sides is set to reach unprecedented levels. After all, where are all eyes during a game? On the ball.
Coupled with the professional photography of Beanstalk Media, Ellisons’ new look will be more prominent than ever, both on matchdays and across our digital platforms. This partnership also elevates Ellisons into the Premium Sponsors bracket at Bury St Edmunds Rugby Club, strengthening their profile across all club spaces and channels for the season ahead – and beyond.
Sam Cook, Partner in Ellisons’ Dispute Resolution Team, said:
“Supporting Bury St Edmunds Rugby Club is a natural partnership for us. We’re proud to stand alongside our community and the people who make it special whether that’s on the pitch or in the boardroom.”
Charlene Boyraram, Legal Director in Ellisons’ Residential Conveyancing Team, added:
“The club represents everything we admire about commitment, teamwork, and resilience. A number of the team and our families are directly involved in the club, so this represents far more than simply putting our brand on the match ball.”
The Club would like to extend their heartfelt thanks to Ellisons for their continued support, and in particular to Matthew Rowe for his role in bringing this exciting partnership to life.
Keep your eyes peeled for the new Ellisons match balls at The Haberden this season – they look so good, you might just want to take one home!
