KILDARE GAA EXTEND PARTNERSHIP WITH FUTURE TICKETING

 

  • Renewal of minor hurling leagues and championships sponsorship
  • Future Ticketing back Kildare GAA for two more years
  • Irish-owned company’s deep affinity with the national games

 

Kildare GAA and leading ticketing solutions provider Future Ticketing have again teamed up for the sponsorship of the County’s Minor Hurling Leagues and Championships.

 

Future Ticketing, Kildare GAA’s principal ticketing partner, will sponsor the competitions for the next two years, extending a fruitful relationship which began in 2021.

 

Aisling Fennin, Key Account Manager at Future Ticketing, said that as an Irish-owned and Irish-based ticketing company, Future Ticketing has an instinctive understanding of the GAA and its importance to local communities in Kildare and anywhere the national games are played.

 

Ms Fennin said: “Future Ticketing are delighted to sponsor the minor hurling leagues and championships in Kildare for the next two years. As the current ticketing partner of Kildare GAA this sponsorship strengthens our ties with the County Board, Kildare GAA clubs and fans who attend all club games.”

 

She added: “The work being implemented in hurling in Kildare at grassroots level is proving to be a great success, and we are pleased to support the ongoing development of hurling in the clubs across Kildare. As a lifelong Castlemitchell and Kildare GAA fan I am very proud to be associated with this sponsorship in my own home county”.

 

Kildare GAA Chairperson Mick Gorman stated: “We are delighted to renew our sponsorship agreement with Future Ticketing for an additional two years. Future Ticketing have been fantastic supporters of our minor hurling age group within the county since 2021. They are also the principal ticketing provider for Kildare GAA. We thank them for their continued commitment in moving forward with us for another two years. We look forward to continued successes together in the coming years.”

The growing appeal of Future Ticketing across the GAA was underlined recently when the Offaly-based company entered a new partnership with Clare GAA, adding the Banner County to a list which already includes Kildare, Tipperary, Roscommon and Longford.

Future Ticketing’s system is a win-win for Gaelic games supporters and the counties.

 

When fans book their match tickets online, an easy four-step purchase, the County Board has access to that revenue in advance.

Customers can easily use Apple Pay and Google Pay when purchasing and each county benefits from live scanning figures at all games.
