The Brisbane Lions are proud to announce a new partnership with Bond University.
Bond University will be the ‘Official Coaches Partner’ of the Brisbane Lions Women’s team. Their branding will appear on the coaches apparel and media backdrop.
Bond University is Australia’s first independent, not-for-profit university and boasts the title of Australia’s highest rating university for Educational Experience, according to the 2017 Good Universities Guide.
Bond’s vision is to be Australia’s leading destination for Sports Education. They have a strong association with AFL. Its men’s senior team has won two of its last three premierships and as a result has been catapulted into progressively higher divisions, year-on-year.
Bond’s women’s team, now in its third year, has shown remarkable growth and progress over its short history. They were very unlucky to miss out on a premiership spot last season, but look very promising for the year ahead.
Bond’s Executive Director of Sport, Garry Nucifora said the University was extremely proud to partner with the Brisbane Lions women’s team.
“At Bond, sport is part of our DNA. We are staunch champions of women’s sport and the creation of pathways to enable more opportunities for young players to develop into elite female athletes and professionals through coaching, conditioning, mentoring and education,” he said.
“In the past few weeks we have witnessed the nation getting behind women’s football to an extent never seen before, and Bond University is proud to cement its support of women’s AFL through this partnership with the Brisbane Lions.”
Brisbane Lions Women’s CEO Breeanna Brock said: “We’re really excited to have Bond University on board with us on our journey in our inaugural AFL Women’s season.”
