The Welland Jackfish and Newark Brewing Company are continuing their partnership for another decade.
Newark Brewing Company, who brews Pond Water Lager, the official beer of the team, agreed to partner for another 10 years, while also helping build a 1400 square foot group and merchandise section at the diamond.
The new group zone will feature a VIP ticket which includes two hot food items, three Newark beverages or Pepsi products, unlimited water, unlimited popcorn, and a limited-edition Jackfish hat.
Location of the new addition.
The new pavilion will feature a 680 ft² group zone and a 40-foot shipping container Tackle Box merchandise store. This comes after the team announced a new long-term lease with the City of Welland in late 2023.
The 10-year partnership is the longest in Jackfish history and the team will continue with Newark as the team’s official beer.
The regular-season in 2024 is a total of 42 games, with 21 of those coming at Welland Stadium. The Jackfish will open on the road May 17th in London, but close the regular season at home as the regular-season finale is scheduled for Saturday, August 17th against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The 2024 campaign will feature home games at Welland Stadium on 9 Thursdays, 10 Saturdays, 1 Sunday and 1 Monday throughout the summer.
