Leeds-based Boost Drinks has announced it will partner with Leeds United FC to become the ‘Official Energy Drinks Partner’ for the club.
The partnership will start during the 21-22 football season, with Boost Drinks to be promoted across the Elland Road stadium and Thorp Arch Training Ground.
A range of the energy drinks brands products will be made available during match days at the stadium, and at its official Leeds United retail stores.
