Guaranteed Rate will join Major League Rugby (MLR) as the "Official Mortgage Provider of MLR." The sponsorship, brokered by Philadelphia-based Maestro Sports & Entertainment, will include nationally televised exposure during three dozen matches, in venue signage, and Man of the Match features.

"Heading into our fourth season we are excited to highlight our stand-out players as well as our additional broadcast offerings specifically the Guaranteed Rate Try Zone, which we feel will bring great awareness and added value to this sponsorship," said MLR Commissioner George Killebrew.

Guaranteed Rate Try Zone will be highlighted during these national broadcasts with in-stadium signage and broadcast announcements. Following each MLR match, one player will be recognized and interviewed as the Guaranteed Rate Man of the Match. The interview will be shared across the team's and league's social media platforms as well as broadcasted on The Rugby Network.
