Warriors NRLW team lands Flight Centre sponsorship

Flight Centre is on-board with the Vodafone Warriors as their inaugural NRL women’s premiership campaign takes off against the Sydney Roosters at ANZ Stadium in Sydney on Saturday.

New Zealand’s leading travel retailer will be front and centre for the club’s debut after confirming a two-year partnership today as the team’s first major sponsor for the trailblazing competition.

The deal sees Flight Centre emblazoned on the front of the team’s jersey for the four-week series which runs concurrently with the NRL finals.

“We couldn’t be more excited to join forces for what is a wonderful initiative not just for rugby league but also for sport and the community,” said Flight Centre NZ managing director David Coombes.

“The number of women playing rugby league in New Zealand and around the world continues to grow and we’re proud to be able to forge ahead with this exceptional group of women.

Vodafone Warriors commercial manager Glenn Critchley said the relationship with Flight Centre signalled a significant development.

“Our women players are forging new ground and to have Flight Centre commit to their sponsorship and get behind our team is an exciting moment,” he said.

“Together we’ll be able to inspire women across the country both on and off the field.”
