Tigers secure new Punt Road naming-rights sponsor

Richmond has locked in a new naming-rights sponsor for their Punt Road headquarters.

The iconic ground will carry the name 'BP Centre' following signing a lucrative multi-million dollar five-year deal with the oil company giant.

The Tigers had been without a naming-rights sponsor for their historic home since their deal with ME Bank ended late last year.

Richmond CEO, Brendon Gale, said BP coming on board as naming-rights sponsor was great news for the AFL club and importantly would further allow the Tigers to continue to invest in its facilities.

BP continues an automotive theme at Punt Road with Jeep and Bingle also being major sponsors of the Tigers.
