“And we are delighted that Invesco Perpetual have put their faith in the brand once more and invested for the sixth consecutive year in the game in Wales.”

It is fantastic news that in our sixth year of sponsoring the Invesco Perpetual Series we have all of the southern hemisphere giants participating, it’s a mouth watering prospect that I’m sure all rugby fans are looking forward to.
