Mortgage House to sponsor new NRL team

By BN,Genavieve Zoeller | 24/11/2009 8:50:00 AM | 12 comments

Mortgage House have put its weight behind the Central Coast Bears' bid for inclusion in the 2013 NRL Premiership, recently signing a multi-million dollar deal to become the team's major sponsor.

The mortgage company also hosts and managers the NRL team's website, which provides an online space for fans to visit and show their support for the bid.

Mortgage House, managing director Ken Sayer said he was proud to be a part of the team's development from such an early stage.

"Mortgage House has a long association with Rugby League, but this is the first time we have been involved from the inception stage. There is a greater sense of achievement, the satisfaction of seeing a project grown from the beginning and come to fruition," said Sayer.

"It is exceptional to see the community and corporate entities, alike, backing the bid and really getting involved at all levels."

Nice work Mortgage House! Getting on board with Central Coast Bears from the beginning is fantastic, they are club that will attract a lot of core fans as well as being a second team for others.

I think this a great postive move by Mortgage House..The people of the Central Coast and the North Shore have waited for over 10 years for their NRL team.. The Central Coast Bears 101 years tradition with a new lease on life.the catchment area of 1 million pop..no wonder other NRL sides are enviuos at what the Bears will achieve.. once again thankyou Mortgage house for getting on board our journey.

I can''t thank mortgage house enough for backing the central coast bears push to be back in the nrl for the 2013. The north sydney bears have a very proud trandition dating back to 1908 where at that time their boundaries included up to wyong on the central coast thanks to mortgage house sponsureship they are helping the fans reliase our dream that the bears will return. it has been a 10 year battle but it will be worth it.

I would like to thank Mortgage Hosue for there support of th Central Coast Bears bid. The exposure Mortgage House will get out of this with a population of over a million people from Milsons Point to the Central Coast is worth its weight in gold.
Go you mighty Bears!!

Great vision for Mortgage House, the Central Coast Bears are going to be huge, from Milsons Point to Lake Munmorah people will rally to their cause which is inclusion to the NRL in 2013. "GO THE MIGHTY BEARS"....."GO MORTGAGE HOUSE".

Bear supporters are extremely loyal and would be a great asset for any business. We seem to have all the right people in the right areas!! Whether its 2013 or 2015 or whatever, it will happen.. Mr Gallop has a mandate to grow the game and he needs to do it and soon!!!

This is a gutsy move from mortgage house, and I commend and thank them. The people of the Central Coast and Bears supporters alike will not forget that you got on board at such a crucial time, and if the Bears are successful we will owe you a great debt (excuse the pun) of thanks.
