SponSorShip opportunitieS with SCCC at the Kia oval

the Kia oval. one of the world’s most iconic sporting venues. the home of Surrey County Cricket Club and perennial hosts of international cricket; there is close affinity with both tradition and success.

we are as passionate about becoming the best cricket club in the country as we are about establishing a robust business culture. Surrey and the Kia oval has great heritage. in tandem, we continue to build a stronger, more commercially orientated brand which will form the foundation for our journey to becoming the best.

More than just a venue, the Kia oval provides everlasting memories, none moreso than the urn paraded around for the third consecutive home series which is something nobody here will forget for a very long time to come. the Kia oval continues to capture exhilarating moments and experiences both on and off the pitch.

we’ve become the blueprint for setting new standards in excellence, while at the same time matching success with commercial stability.

we have forged a shining example of business and sport united in ambition. we’d love you to become a part of it.
