Cardiff City are delighted to announce that they have joined forces with new shirt sponsors SBOBET.com to promote the good work of Ty Hafan children's hospice.

The club's under-16 and under-18 academy team shirts will carry the Ty Hafan logo as a result of the club's newly-announced link-up with SBOBET.com

The logo will also be on all junior sizes of replica shirts to publicise Ty Hafan's vital role in caring for ill children and supporting their families.

Frank Ady, head of corporate partnerships at Ty Hafan, said: "Everyone here is absolutely delighted that Cardiff City have chosen our logo to be on the under-16, under-18 and replica Bluebird shirts.

"Many of the life-limited children, young people and families who use our services are huge fans of the club and the exposure will help enormously to raise the much-needed awareness and support for the charity, particularly amongst the younger generation.

"On behalf of everyone at Ty Hafan I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the club and its chairman and their sponsors for giving us for this fantastic opportunity."

Bill Mummery executive director of SBOBET said: "We are delighted to give visibility to the valuable work done by Ty Hafan through the children's replica shirts and the club's academy under-16 and under-18 Teams. This is exactly the sort of opportunity to support community initiatives that we welcome"

SBOBET will also make a donation to Ty Hafan to mark the launch of their association with Cardiff City.

Cardiff City chairman and chief executive Peter Ridsdale said: "We are delighted that in conjunction with our sponsors SBOBET we are able to carry the TY Hafan children's hospice logo on all of our children's replica shirts as well as our under-16 and under-18 academy team shirts. This demonstrates the community awareness and responsibilities that both companies share."
