Leveraging its longstanding partnership with global payment giant MasterCard, HNB PLC recently secured an exclusive opportunity to display the coveted Webb Ellis trophy at HNB Towers.

Extending a once-in-a-lifetime invitation to the event, HNB hosted students, the bank’s top clientele together with the staff, to view the trophy in person, on its maiden visit to the island.

“Sri Lanka has a proud heritage and long history with rugby since 1879. The competitive sport is intricately woven into the fabric and spirit of our local sporting culture, going so far as to establish competitive encounters which draw past pupils and rugby enthusiasts globally to our island each year.

“Having experienced the raw enthusiasm of our rugby players over the years, we jumped at the opportunity to display the trophy at HNB Towers. Moreover, given the challenges we have faced over the past three years, we want to take every opportunity to inspire and motivate young sportspeople to celebrate the sport and its storied past,” HNB Deputy General Manager – Retail and SME Banking Sanjay Wijemanne said.
