The side has also captured 14 FA Cups, two League Cups, 16 FA Community Shields, the League Centenary Trophy, one European Cup Winners’ Cup, and one Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Arsenal has always been a club on the cutting edge of future innovation, emphasized by the popularity of their women’s side.

They will harness Arsenal’s iconic status in women’s football to help grow the game in Estonia, where Sportsbet.io’s operation is situated.  Arsenal coaches will deliver football clinics to Estonia’s U-19 women’s team to inspire and nurture the next generation of talent. Both organizations are also committed to working together to explore other social responsibility initiatives and promote safe and responsible gambling throughout the partnership. Sportsbet.io also has deals in place in England to serve as main club partner for Southampton FC of the EPL and as headline shirt sponsor of Championship team Watford FC.
