Canada Soccer & Allstate Canada Announce Multi-Year Partnership Extension

Canada Soccer and Allstate Insurance Company of Canada are
​proud to announce a multi-year partnership extension, which renews the support
​of Allstate Canada and its Agents for the sport of soccer at every level across
​the country. In addition to continuing its position as the official Home and
​Auto Insurance partner of Canada Soccer’s National Teams, the Canadian
​Championship and Active Start Soccer Fests grassroots program, the expanded
​partnership sees Allstate Canada become an official partner of the Canadian
​Premier League. The announcement builds upon the tremendous success of the
​first five years of the relationship which kicked off in 2016.

“The support provided by committed partners like Allstate
​enables Canada Soccer to provide leadership for the Canadian soccer community,
​and to achieve our collective objectives to grow and develop the sport,” said
​Peter Montopoli, Canada Soccer General Secretary. “Over the course of our
​partnership, Allstate Canada have introduced a number of initiatives which have
​been key to engaging soccer fans from coast-to-coast and we look forward to
​continued collaboration as we embark on an exciting future for the sport in our
​country.”

The announcement comes at an exciting time for the sport as
​Canada Soccer’s National Teams embark on an important 2021 season. The Women’s
​National Team, led by new Head Coach Bev Priestman, are preparing to compete at
​the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and build on its back-to-back bronze medal performances,
​while the Men’s National Team will begin its qualifying campaign for the FIFA
​World Cup Qatar 2022™ led by Head Coach John Herdman.

“Soccer fans are among the
​most passionate of all sports fans and the foundation of our arrangement with
​Canada Soccer and the Canadian Premier League is to find creative, engaging
​ways for that audience to connect with the game they love so much,” says
​Marcelo Regen, Vice President of Allstate Brand Innovation & Chief Customer
​Officer, Allstate Canada Group. “We’re thrilled to be able to extend our
​partnerships and are looking forward to bringing forward additional programming
​that benefits the growth of the sport and opportunities for fans to celebrate
​The Beautiful Game.”

Allstate Canada will leverage this strategic partnership to
​continue its flagship soccer programing which includes the Allstate High
​Performance Soccer Clinics series featuring appearances by Canada Soccer
​National Team athletes, the ground-breaking Allstate Soccer Show, and the
​fostering of strong community connections through Canada Soccer’s Active Start
​Soccer Fests. In addition, Allstate will engage fans from coast-to-coast
​through content, contests and activations around Canadian National Team and
​Canadian Championship matches.

The well-received Allstate Good Hands Award campaigns will
​also continue which recognize the ‘top saves’, as voted by fans, made by a
​Canadian National Team and a Canadian Premier League goalkeeper, respectively,
​each year.
