Sponsorships

We want to grow the social, cultural, and financial wellbeing of New Zealanders. That’s why our partnerships and initiatives give back to communities.

Invested in basketball

Basketball is one of the fastest growing sports in New Zealand. It has a special ability to bring people together — whether that’s young people shooting hoops after school, families connecting on the sidelines, or volunteers giving their time to coach the next generation. We’ve partnered with Basketball New Zealand, key professional teams, and leagues in New Zealand to help to grow the game.

BNZ Community Coaches

The number of community basketball coaches hasn’t kept up with demand from rangatahi and tamariki. We want to help grow and support the coaching bench so more kids can get on court. Alongside Basketball New Zealand we’re committed to getting to 20,000 volunteer community coaches by 2028.
