GAC joins the scrum to support Scotland's RBS 6 Nations Campaign

United Kingdom (UK), 11 February 2013 - When the RBS 6 Nations tournament kicked off last weekend, GAC was among the fans cheering on the Scotland team in the contest that sees them competing against national sides from England, Ireland, Wales, France and Italy – thanks to a sponsorship deal signed with Scottish Rugby.

Under the deal, the GAC logo is prominently displayed pitchside for tournament games at the home of Scottish Rugby - the iconic Murrayfield Stadium. GAC clients enjoyed a VIP view of the action when Scotland played Italy this weekend (9 February) and others will attend the Scotland v Ireland and Scotland v Wales games on 24 February and 9 March respectively.

GAC is a well-established member of the shipping and energy community in Aberdeen, so supporting Scottish Rugby makes sense says William Hill, GAC’s Group Executive Vice President.

"GAC is a major presence north of the border and we have many Scots among our staff and clients," he says. "The 6 Nations tournament is generating massive interest throughout Scotland and Aberdeen – and GAC has staked its claim on its sidelines for the excitement the games will bring."
