According to a recent announcement on February 1st, Betfred Virginia Sportsbook might already be accessible on your mobile device, and in the near future, it could also be featured on the back of jerseys.
After quietly accepting its inaugural Virginia sports bets on December 19th, the gaming company recently made an announcement on Wednesday, indicating its preparedness for Virginia Super Bowl bets and future endeavors.
Virginia now has 15 sportsbooks to choose from
Virginia limits the number of “at-large” sportsbook licenses to 12; however, there are certain circumstances where additional sportsbooks can obtain a license in the state.
- The Virginia casino collaborates with them.
- Franchises located outside of Virginia must adhere to specific employment criteria to qualify, or they can opt for one of the two licenses offered for professional sports partnerships.
For instance, FanDuel has successfully launched in Virginia by partnering with the Washington Commanders at FedEx Field. Similarly, Betfred has recently secured the second position.
Bryan Bennett, the USA Sports COO, expressed his anticipation for the collaboration with Loudoun United.
“With numerous major sporting events taking place in the upcoming weeks and months, and the USL Championship season set to kick off soon, now is the perfect moment to introduce sports betting.”
Starting from the 2025 USL Championship Season, Loudoun United FC jerseys will feature Betfred’s logo on the back.
Loudoun United is a team that competes in the United Soccer League, a league that has been in existence since 2011. Fans can catch the league matches on various ESPN platforms. Located at Segra Field in Leesburg, VA, near Washington DC, Loudoun United FC enjoys a close partnership with the DC United MLS franchise. The team’s executive business officer is Doug Raftery.
Betfred will have a noticeable presence at home games and across different online club channels. We eagerly anticipate a remarkable 2025 season and working together to expand our business.
