MRL to get Nike apparel

The Malta Rugby League (MRL) and Time International (Sports) Ltd., through its franchise Urban Jungle, have just announced a three-year deal that sees the sportswear supplier becoming the national team’s official technical partner until the end of 2014.

National team players paraded the new Nike kit design at Tignè last week as officials announced that Malta will play against Denmark at home this summer.

Urban Jungle’s sales manager, Michael Naudi, spoke of the firm’s commitment to the national team that boasts an international ranking of 20th in the world.

“We have watched the progress of the Rugby League team very carefully and are proud to support their development,” he said.
