Key Points

  • Four-year deal supports women's national team and all youth-to-senior female categories.
  • Logo on kits, training gear, and travel wear (excluding UEFA/FIFA matches).
  • FAF issued 3,488 football licences last season, 425 for women.
  • Joint initiatives to boost visibility; stadium naming rights declined to avoid conflicts.

Andbank has signed a four-year sponsorship deal with the Andorran Football Federation (FAF) to support Andorran football, serving as the principal sponsor with a particular focus on the women's national team and all women's categories from youth to senior levels.

The agreement, presented in Andorra la Vella, emphasises shared values of effort, excellence, teamwork, youth development, and equal opportunities. Attendees included Maria Suárez, Andbank's Country Banking Director; Fèlix Álvarez, FAF president; Alfonso Martín, FAF vice-president; and Marc Rodríguez, FAF board member.

The partnership aims to bolster the growth of women's football, which has seen rising participation. The FAF, which governs football in the Principat, recorded 3,488 licences in the most recent season, including 425 for women's categories—part of over 9,000 total federated sports licences, with football dominating team sports.

Andbank's logo will appear on women's national team kits, training gear, and travel wear, though not in official UEFA or FIFA matches due to rights restrictions. The deal also includes joint initiatives over the four-year term to enhance visibility and structure.

Suárez described the sponsorship as a commitment to projects promoting effort, equality, and overcoming challenges, calling it an investment in Andorra's youth. Álvarez welcomed the support at a key stage for women's and grassroots football, noting it would enable ambitious projects without implying prior shortcomings. He stressed that the women's team already had resources comparable to the men's senior and U21 sides.

Discussions also considered Andbank naming rights for the FAF's new stadium in Encamp, but this was ruled out to avoid conflicts with existing deals involving MoraBanc and FC Andorra. Álvarez said the federation had covered such costs internally and prioritised harmony.
