Newcastle Thunder renew partnership with iPRO Hydrate for three years

Newcastle Rugby Ltd are pleased to announce iPRO Hydrate as the club's preferred hydration partner for a further three years.

This partnership renewal will see iPRO Hydrate supply both rugby union side Newcastle Falcons and rugby league team Newcastle Thunder, with their Informed Sport Approved range of products keeping the players hydrated during training and on match days until 2022.

From grassroots level to professional clubs both internationally and in the UK, iPRO provides optimum hydration in the form of low sugar drinks sweetened by Stevia. All flavours have natural ingredients and are free from artificial colours, flavours and sweeteners – allowing players to reach optimum performance levels in the most competitive of environments.

iPRO will also be working in partnership with Newcastle Rugby to promote sustainability, and are proud to supply their healthy hydration drinks within 500ml bottles which are 100% recyclable and use a minimum of 50% recycled plastic. The club will also receive a new allocation of iPRO reusable water bottles for players, to reduce the usage of single-use plastic water bottles.
