Sharks Announce New Sleeve Sponsor @ Cronulla Sharks
The Hisense Sharks have confirmed that PokerStars.net has joined the Sharks as its new major sleeve sponsor for the 2010 and 2011 seasons.
PokerStars.net is the world’s largest free of charge on-line poker website with more than 32 million members around the world.
“We’re over the moon with the two-year sponsorship deal and are really looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership with the Sharks as they rebuild,” 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion, Joe Hachem, said.
“We definitely see poker and rugby league sharing the same sort of competitive drives and therefore a partnership like this with the Sharks really makes sense.”
The signing of PokerStars.net comes only weeks after the club announced Hisense as its 2010 and 2011 major sponsor and Shire Steel as a shorts partner.
More hands have been dealt on PokerStars.net than any other site, that’s over 40 billion hands dealt to date and more than 283 million tournaments played. PokerStars.net operates worldwide under the license from the Isle of Man Government.
PokerStars.net is also home to an elite team of sponsored players known as Team PokerStars.net Pro – a group of established and up and coming players that travel the world competing in international tournaments.
