LiveScore Group, the global sports media and betting business, has agreed a deal with Sunderland AFC to become one of the Club’s Principal Partners.

LiveScore is also the Official Scores Partner of the Club.
With the North-East giants returning to the Premier League after nearly a decade, the partnership kicks off at a hugely exciting moment in Sunderland AFC’s history. The LiveScore Bet logo will first appear on the sleeves of the iconic red and white stripes as Sunderland AFC hosts West Ham United at the Stadium of Light on Saturday, 16th August.
Accessing a range of inventory, including tickets, player appearances, LED visibility, social content and more, the partnership will see the LiveScore Bet and LiveScore brands offer a range of exclusive fan experiences throughout the season, rewarding supporters for their passion and support for the Black Cats.
Dominic Vye, Marketing Director at LiveScore and LiveScore Bet, said; “We are extremely excited to be partnering with Sunderland AFC at this monumental moment in their history. Sunderland supporters are famed within the game for their passion and pride, and the special place which the club holds in their community.
As brands, LiveScore Bet and LiveScore are all about fuelling fans’ passion for sport. We can’t wait to unveil a series of initiatives which will bring this to life for Sunderland fans at home and around the world.”
Ashley Peden, Chief Commercial Officer at Sunderland AFC, added: “We are delighted to welcome LiveScore and LiveScore Bet into the Sunderland AFC family ahead of our return to the Premier League. Following a season which saw the Club come together on and off the field, finding the right partners for this next step has been a huge focus. The strength of the LiveScore brand and the fact that fans are central to everything LiveScore Group stands for made this relationship an incredibly exciting proposition. With prominence across our first-team sleeves, training wear, and warm-up kit, we are excited about working closely with the brand to create even more engaging experiences for our fans.”

What the Award Recognises
The European Marketing Campaign of the Year – B2C category honours marketing initiatives that achieve significant commercial impact or enhance brand development. Judges evaluate originality, creativity, quality of execution, and measurable results.
About RocketWisdom: The Book
RocketPlay’s winning campaign began as a player research project. Over two months, the casino invited its community to share their gaming habits and “rituals,” gathering over 1,000 responses. These insights were transformed into a book featuring 100+ authentic player stories, curated but not rewritten by the brand.
The campaign gained rapid momentum after streamers discovered the book. Within just three days, RocketPlay received around 1,000 direct requests, turning a private research initiative into a fully-fledged public campaign. The project was amplified across owned channels, social media, creator content, media coverage, and in-product activations.
Campaign Highlights
- 13,000+ downloads
- ~100 streams showcasing the project (~200,000 viewers)
- 50+ media outlets coverage
For RocketPlay, the award represents a major milestone and underscores the power of community-driven storytelling. The campaign demonstrates that authentic engagement can deliver measurable performance, not just visibility. RocketPlay continues to build its reputation in the community, maintaining top ratings across platforms including 9.8/10 on CasinoGuru, 9.1/10 on AskGamblers, 4.4/5 on Trustpilot, and 4.3/5 on LCB.
