NSW Waratahs Sign Resilience Insurance as New Principal Partner

The NSW Waratahs have confirmed Resilience Insurance as their new Principal Partner in a three-year agreement running until 2028, replacing former principal backer NRI.

The deal will see Resilience’s branding feature on the front of the Waratahs’ jerseys across Super Rugby Pacific and academy pathway teams.

Sharing the enhanced agreement marked as an important step in the club’s growth strategy, NSW Waratahs chairman, Tony Crawford, said: “To have Resilience Insurance bolster their commitment at a time when we are also seeking to continue our upward trajectory reflects our synergy,”

Crawford also acknowledged outgoing Principal Partner NRI, noting its role in helping position the organisation for its current resurgence.

For Resilience Insurance, the partnership offers increased brand visibility through one of Australia’s most recognisable rugby properties, with exposure extending beyond elite competition to grassroots pathways.

Sharing the deal’s reflection to a deeper alignment with the Waratahs, CEO Corey Nugent, expressed: “We are proud to have contributed to their success both on and off the field.” 

Resilience Insurance, a specialist in Latent Defect Insurance, has been active in more than 40 international markets but remains unique within Australia.

Its elevation from Platinum Partner in 2025 to Principal Partner underlines a strengthening commercial commitment at a time when the Waratahs are seeking to rebuild both on and off the field.
