Port Adelaide Football Club Announce Partnership with sportsmed

The Port Adelaide Football Club has officially welcomed sportsmed as an official club partner, formalising a long-standing relationship that has delivered critical medical and orthopaedic support across the club’s AFL and AFLW programs.

As a premier South Australian provider of sports medicine, physiotherapy, and podiatry, sportsmed has long helped Port Adelaide athletes perform at their best.

Under the new agreement, sportsmed’s branding will feature on the club’s official game-day physiotherapy bibs, while supporters receive exclusive behind-the-scenes content showcasing how the medical team prepares players for competition.

Commenting on the partnership, Port Adelaide GM – commercial and partnerships, Adam Thomson, said: “We’re incredibly proud to formalise our long-standing relationship with sportsmed through this new partnership.”

“The health and wellbeing of our athletes is paramount, and having an organisation with sportsmed’s expertise supporting both our AFL and AFLW programs gives us great confidence.

“Beyond elite sport, sportsmed shares our commitment to making a positive impact in the community.

“Their reputation for delivering outstanding care to South Australians aligns strongly with our values, and we’re excited to continue working together both on and off the field,” Mr Thomson said. 

Emphasising the broader commercial implications of the collaboration, sportsmed CEO, Tim Payze, added: “This is a natural evolution of a long-standing relationship and a powerful endorsement of the care sportsmed provides every day.”

“While our team is trusted to care for athletes competing at the highest level, everyday Australians can feel confident that they’re accessing the same clinical expertise and commitment to excellence.

“We’re incredibly proud to partner with a club that has such a rich history and deep connection with South Australians.

“Port Adelaide has built its reputation over generations through resilience, professionalism and striving for excellence – values that closely align with sportsmed.

“We look forward to further supporting both the AFL and AFLW teams and the Port Adelaide community,” Mr Payze said.
