Connecticut Sun and Jordan's Furniture Announce Community and Gameday Partnership
Today, the Connecticut Sun announced a community and gameday partnership with Jordan’s Furniture, bringing an elevated experience for Sun fans through the Jordan’s Furniture DJ Experience that will be taking place during select home games this upcoming season.
The four lucky fans who get to enjoy the Jordan’s Furniture DJ Experience get free food and drinks, and sit in special seats next to the DJ booth. The online contest will take place during the month of April at the Jordan’s Furniture Long Wharf, New Haven location. Customers will have the opportunity to scan a QR Code that will take them to a registration page online where they can enter their information. At the end of April, Jordan’s Furniture will pull the names of the winners at random.
Off the court, Jordan’s will be helping the Connecticut Sun make a positive impact in the community by sponsoring the Connecticut Sun’s Basketball for Free clinics. As was previously announced, as part of the Connecticut Sun’s Change Can’t Wait campaign and building off of Jordan’s work helping children and families in need, the Connecticut Sun and Jordan’s Furniture launched a series of free basketball clinics for girls throughout the year. Both organizations want to inspire girls around Connecticut to use their talent and their voices to achieve their goals.
“One of my goals when starting in this position at the Sun was to find and create sustainable and impactful partnerships with New England’s leading brands. Jordan’s Furniture gives us the balance of everything we are looking for in a partnership: positive youth impact through Basketball for Free clinics, events that connect our staff and players to the community, and an in-game DJ experience element that will carry the team’s homecourt energy all season long.” – Jen Rizzotti, President of the Connecticut Sun
In addition to the Jordan’s Furniture DJ Experience and Basketball for Free clinics, Jordan’s Furniture will be sponsoring Blaze’s Birthday theme night. Mascots from sports teams across the country will be flying in to celebrate Blaze turning 18 years old.
The Connecticut Sun will celebrate its 20th Anniversary as a franchise this year. For additional information or to purchase tickets, visit www.connecticutsun.com.
