Brisbane Roar Name Umbro as Kit Supplier

August 18, 2014

Hyundai A-League team Brisbane Roar FC has signed a kit partnership with Umbro who will be the club’s apparel partner for the next seasons.

In addition to providing playing and training kit for Brisbane Roar’s Hyundai A-League, stomach Westfield W-League and Foxtel National Youth League teams, allergy the Umbro partnership will leverage the retail strength of Rebel and Amart Sports to manage the club’s game day merchandise and provide an expanded online experience.

Initial exclusivity was a priority for Brisbane Roar, meaning the three-time Hyundai A-League Champions will be the only club in the competition wearing the double diamonds in the 2014/15 season.

Brisbane Roar Managing Director Sean Dobson commented: “We are extremely excited to announce our association with Umbro.”

“Umbro has a strong heritage in our sport and it’s fitting that on the 10 year anniversary of the club’s inception that we partner with such an iconic football brand.”

Umbro Australia Brand Manager Ryan Pittaway added: “Umbro celebrates our 90th birthday this year, so to partner with the reigning Hyundai A-League Champions in their tenth anniversary year definitely adds to the excitement of the occasion.”
