YGAM named as ICE London charity partner
YGAM, the award winning charity whose social purpose is to inform, educate and safeguard young people against gaming and gambling harms has been named as the official charity partner of ICE London 2023. The partnership will also see YGAM become the charity partner at the black tie iGB Affiliate London Awards taking place on Thursday February 9th at The Troxy, London’s iconic art deco venue.
Confirming the partnership, Stuart Hunter, Managing Director, Clarion Gaming stated: “We are delighted to welcome YGAM as our official charity partner. YGAM is a progressive organisation which is well-known to and highly respected by many of the ICE London exhibitors and stakeholders.
“In all of the many conversations that we have with the industry safer gambling is at the top of their agenda and we are delighted to be able to use the power of the ICE brand and the platform provided by ICE London to promote safer gambling and raise awareness of the outstanding work undertaken on a daily basis by the team at YGAM.”
He added: “Our commitment to safer gambling is probably best known as a result of the award winning Consumer Protection Zone (CPZ) which we introduced to the ICE show floor in 2018. Each year the CPZ has grown in size and status with the 2023 edition hosting a record 20 stands an increase on the 14 present at the 2022 edition of ICE.
“The CPZ was recognised by the industry at the Global Regulatory Awards and has grown to become arguably the most visible manifestation of safer gambling at any industry trade show. YGAM is one of the charities that we gift space to on the CPZ and will also receive high profile branding on the CPZ theatre and on other high footfall areas of the ICE show floor.”
Ian Shanahan, Director of Business Development and Fundraising at YGAM added: “We are pleased to be working closely with Clarion Gaming again this year. ICE London is the biggest event of its kind, so its profile provides our charity with a valuable platform to raise awareness of the important work that we do to help prevent gaming and gambling harms.
“We’re looking forward to joining colleagues from across the third sector in the Consumer Protection Zone in its prominent location. YGAM will be launching our ambitious new strategy and refreshed brand in 2023 so we’re looking to showcase this at ICE ahead of an exciting year for the charity!”
The charity partnership will also see YGAM confirmed as an ICE Ambassador, receive branding around the show, be part of the official exhibition opening, attend as guests at the Casino Awards and the WRA reception and have fundraising visibility via POS leaflets and QR codes including in the ICE Show Daily newspaper.

LIGA MX and Polymarket Announce Sponsorship Agreement for the US Territory with Official Data and Integrity Collaboration from Genius Sports
LIGA MX, Polymarket and Genius Sports announced a new agreement that will see Polymarket, the world’s largest prediction market, become an official sponsor of LIGA MX in the US territory, with Genius Sports providing official data and integrity information-sharing services underpinning the partnership.
Under the agreement, Polymarket will serve as the official and exclusive prediction market partner of LIGA MX in the US, spanning league competitions including Campeón de Campeones, the annual match between the champions of the Liga MX Apertura and Clausura tournaments, scheduled for July 25, 2026, in Carson, California.
Liga MX’s Official Data, Streaming and Integrity Partner, Genius Sports, will provide Polymarket with official sports data to support the creation and settlement of related sports prediction market contracts.
Verified official data from Genius Sports, whose GeniusIQ platform operates across every Liga MX stadium, serves as the source of truth for Liga MX market settlement on Polymarket, so contracts resolve against authoritative league data. Polymarket also adheres to Genius Sports’ integrity information-sharing processes, which give leagues greater visibility into related market activity. These efforts reinforce Polymarket’s integrity framework, which includes on-chain monitoring with Chainalysis and a next-generation sports integrity platform developed with Palantir Technologies and TWG AI.
“This partnership with Polymarket represents an innovative opportunity to further engage our passionate fanbase in such an important market for Liga MX as the US territory is, through new digital experiences, while maintaining the integrity and credibility that are fundamental to our competitions,” said José Romano, FMF’s Commercial VP.
“LIGA MX is one of the most exciting and widely followed football leagues in the world. Genius Sports’ official data and integrity infrastructure ensures every Liga MX market on Polymarket is built on the foundation of trust and transparency the league and its fans deserve,” said Ari Borod, President of Sports Business Development at Polymarket.
“We’re proud to support this partnership by providing the official data and integrity infrastructure that helps power transparent, trusted prediction markets around LIGA MX competitions. Working alongside LIGA MX and Polymarket reflects the growing importance of reliable, verified official data both in creating a premium product and supporting the integrity of sports,” said Mark Locke, CEO of Genius Sports.
Polymarket’s Liga MX markets will be available to eligible U.S. users beginning with the 2026-27 season, which kicks off in July 2026 and includes Campeón de Campeones on July 25, 2026, in Carson, California.

Arnold Ash sponsors Arthurian League’s 2026 US Tour
Arnold Ash, the executive recruitment and advisory specialist, has become sponsor of the Arthurian League’s US Tour, culminating in the inaugural Transatlantic Cup – a prestigious fixture between title-winning English and American amateur sides.
Marking 250 years of US independence, the game is scheduled during the 2026 World Cup, taking place on Friday 26 June in Philadelphia, the birthplace of American independence.
US amateur champions West Chester United SC are holders of the 2025 US Adult Soccer Association (USASA) National Amateur Cup. They will host a side representing England’s Arthurian League, which won the 2024 FA Inter-League Cup and features some of the oldest football clubs ever, including former FA Cup winners Old Etonians and Old Carthusians.
Arnold Ash’s logo will appear on the front of the Arthurian side’s white and red England kit. As the team’s headline partner the deal covers the travelling squad’s full 12-day tour with additional matches against New York Athletic Club and Boston Bolts.
The multi award-winning executive recruitment and advisory firm will also benefit from in-stadium branding at the ticketed match at Drexel University’s Vidal Athletic Complex, as well as on the historic event’s online and social channels.
The sponsorship builds on a relationship that saw Arnold Ash sponsor the Arthurian League representative team at the UEFA Regions Cup 2024. Its commitment to grassroots sport and emerging talent has seen the company support a number of charities, including Gloves and Doves, which helps promote unity and coexistence in Israel and the Middle East through the sport of boxing, and sponsor and support rising star boxer ‘Razor Ali’, an Iranian refugee based in London.
Jon Arnold, CEO at Arnold Ash, said: “Arnold Ash has been a proud sponsor of the Arthurian League representative sides at major events before, but it doesn’t get any bigger than this. The team is hugely talented, made up of the top amateur players England has to offer and – as the best-of-the-best – reflect the Arnold Ash core principles of quality, experience and consistency.
“The World Cup is now underway, but for the next five weeks, the Transatlantic Cup is where the real action is at! We wish both England teams the best of luck stateside!”
Billy Jenkins, Manager of the Arthurian League representative team, said: “Arnold Ash’s sponsorship is hugely valuable to our team, and we are incredibly grateful for their continued backing of grassroots football.
“We are honoured to participate in the first-ever Transatlantic Cup and just like England’s professional team hope to be lifting prestigious silverware on US soil in the coming weeks.”
The Transatlantic Cup takes place at 7.30pm on Friday 26 June, 2026 at Drexel University, Philadelphia. Tickets cost $15 and are available at www.wcp.flicket.io.
