Bookajet to Sponsor Rising Rugby Star Rory Lynn
January 15, 2014
Private jet operator Bookajet, health which has sponsored Bath Rugby and the likes of David Beckham, has announced it will sponsor rising rugby star Rory Lynn.
The young Nottingham fly half emerged from the Leicester Tigers academy alongside George Ford who has been recently selected for the England Rugby squad. The sponsorship deal sees the company, which has a keen interest in fostering rising sporting talent, supporting Rory for the foreseeable future.
“We have been watching Rory for some time and have been impressed by the young man’s ability. After being a Derby and Matlock junior, Rory went on to join George Ford at the Leicester Tigers Academy. He made his senior side debut at just 17 years old, replacing England international Dan Hipkiss for the Tigers against the Ospreys in Bridgend,” says Jonathan Clements, Managing Director, Bookajet.
“We saw a natural talent with a great future ahead of him. He needed to grow in stature and gain experience but now that he is playing regular rugby at fly half for Nottingham, we feel he will evolve into a player to watch for the future.”
Bookajet has been successful in supporting some young professionals who have gone on to become household names.
“Whether we are supporting an individual or a team, as we did with our shirt sponsorship at Bath, our goal is to see new talent develop. Rory Lynn is still young but has an excellent pedigree; he’s a capable player working his way up through the ranks which will stand him in good stead for the future. We wish him the best of luck,” continued Clements.
“I am extremely grateful for Bookajet’s support. The company is well respected with a passion for sport. I hope I can do them proud over the next few seasons,” said Rory Lynn.
