Hockey Australia Secures Musco Lighting Partnership

Hockey Australia has committed to a long-term investment in its national infrastructure, announcing a three-year partnership with global lighting leader Musco Sports Lighting.

Musco’s expertise will be leveraged to ensure consistency and reliability, extending venue operational hours, facilitating the growth of evening competitions, and enhancing spectator comfort.

By delivering world-leading, energy-efficient lighting, Hockey Australia is making a tangible investment in the built environment of the sport, ensuring venues are fit-for-purpose for athletes preparing for international events, right down to junior clubs.

Highlighting the broad commercial value of the partnership, and stressing that the benefits flow directly to the community level, Hockey Australia CEO, David Pryles, said: “Having a world-class lighting partner on board will enable us to lift the standard of our facilities right across Australia – not just for our national teams, but for clubs, community venues and the grassroots.”

“Better lighting means better training, better competition, more comfortable conditions for athletes and spectators, and greater opportunity for hockey to shine in more places,” Pryles said.

The Musco partnership is part of a deliberate wave of new commercial collaborations including; BildGroup, Polytan, and others, that have recently entered the Hockey Australia’s fold, alongside major renewals from longstanding partners such as Kookaburra and ASICS. This steady stream of investment demonstrates the market’s positive response to Hockey Australia’s leadership and its long-term strategic program.

For Musco, the collaboration formalises its global commitment to providing safer and more enjoyable sporting environments.

Sales executive, Sanjay Prakash, noted that the partnership builds on their longstanding commitment to high-quality facilities.
