Grill'd sign on in support of Junior Netball

31 January 2025

AFL Barwon is proud to announce an exciting new partnership with Grill’d, who will become the official naming rights partner of key junior netball competitions across the region.

The partnership will commence during the Summer Season (2024/2025), strengthening the commitment of Grill’d in supporting the growth of grassroots netball in the AFL Barwon competitions.

Through this partnership, the summer and mid-week netball competitions will carry the Grill’d name, reinforcing their alignment with community sport and healthy lifestyles. They will hold the official naming rights for the Summer Junior Netball Competitions, Winter Mid-Week Junior Netball Competitions, the 15 & Under Division 1 Geelong FNL Netball Competition, and the 17 & Under Division 1 Bellarine FNL Netball Competition.

AFL Barwon Regional General Manager, Edward Wilson, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “Embracing local heroes and supporting the local community, has been an everlasting vision of Grill’d across Australia and the opportunity to partner with them locally, to support competitions, Clubs and participants, is one that enthuses us greatly”.

Their support will also see selected players from our junior netball competitions to have the chance to win a free burger voucher for Grill’d restaurants in Waurn Ponds and Pakington Street.
