ImpactOffice Extends Partnership with Old Glory
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — (Washington, DC – Thursday, February 25th , 2021) – ImpactOffice, an office supply vendor located in Greater Washington dedicated to keeping prices low and businesses productive, has signed on to extend its role as a Legacy Partner to the Mid-Atlantic’s Professional Rugby team, Old Glory DC, through the 2022 Major League Rugby season. ImpactOffice has been an original Legacy Partner with the team since its four-match exhibition season in May of 2019.
“We are excited to support the advancement of professional rugby in the US,” said Yancey Jones Jr., CEO of Impact Office. “My brother, Dutch, played for 15 years and introduced our family to the sport. The long-standing tradition and genuine camaraderie that rugby fosters closely aligns with our family’s values and the quality of service that ImpactOffice strives to deliver every day.”
As a Legacy Partner, ImpactOffice will enjoy other promotional opportunities throughout the 2021 MLR season, such as hospitality accommodations at game day events and visibility through the team’s broadcast, print, and social media outreach. Impact Office will also work closely with the Old Glory DC team to create a safer working and training environment as the Major League Rugby team returns to work in 2021.
“One thing I love about ImpactOffice is their agility and ability to change course in support of their customers’ needs,” said Chris Dunlavey, Chairman of Old Glory DC. “Since they’ve been a terrific partner of ours from the very beginning, I’ve had a chance to see them lead the traditional office supply and services industry in our region, but then pivot when the pandemic struck to become a leader in the safe return to the workplace. It may sound corny, but it really is like rugby – you always need to improvise and find a new path to build on success.”
Old Glory DC is slated to play two preseason matches at The St. James on February 26th and March 5th and eight home regular-season matches at Segra Field beginning the weekend of March 27th. The season will culminate with the MLR Championship match on August 1st.
