Origin Energy and Netball Aus extend naming rights partnership

Netball Australia has re-signed its partnership with Origin Energy, ahead of the Diamonds’ first 2024 appearance at the Netball Nations Cup this weekend.

Origin will continue as the team’s official naming rights partner for a fifth year, with branding to feature across all playing and training uniforms.

The brand will also continue as a major partner of the Suncorp Super Netball League.

First signed in 2020, the partnership has helped Netball Australia grow the sport from the grassroots level through to the elite, with almost one million participants.

“Together with Origin, we will continue to grow the sport of netball in Australia from the grassroots through to our Origin Australian Diamonds,” said Netball Australia’s interim CEO, Stacey West.

“The Origin Australian Diamonds have won every major tournament they’ve played in the past two-and-a-half years, including being crowned Commonwealth Games gold medallists and World Champions, and with the ongoing support of Origin will continue to make Australia proud.”

Origin’s general manager of marketing, Catherine Anderson, said the brand is delighted to be extending its partnership.

“Over the past four years, we’ve built a strong relationship with Netball Australia, supporting one of Australia’s most-loved sports at all levels,” she said.

“The Origin Australian Diamonds have enjoyed significant success on the court through this period, as well as being excellent role models within the community.

“We’re excited to continue to help grow netball in Australia and work together to create good change in sport.”

The Diamonds will begin the Netball Nations Cup against New Zealand in London this Saturday, before taking on England and Uganda later in the weekend.
