Adelaide United Retain Stratco as Official Community Partner

October 8, 2013

A-League club Adelaide United have extended their partnership with Stratco as their official Community Partner for the 2013/14 season

One of the largest producers and marketers of quality building and home improvement products in Australia, clinic Stratco returns as one of Adelaide United’s key partners having at one stage previously occupied the ‘back of shirt’ sponsorship.

Adelaide United CEO Glenn Elliott commented on the deal: “It’s tremendous that an organisation of Stratco’s standing and reputation has committed to supporting the club’s community program,” Mr Elliott said.

“Stratco have shown in their previous tenure as a sponsor how passionate they are about the game and particularly this club, so it is fantastic to be able to welcome them back into the Adelaide United family and have them involved in the round ball football code again.”

“The club’s absolute focus in the community is to reach out to schools, clubs and everywhere in between, and the Stratco partnership enables us to do that, helping take the Adelaide United brand and the game to more kids and more people throughout not only South Australia but also the Northern Territory.”

Stratco’s National Marketing Manager, Shane Jones, added: “We are extremely excited to be involved with Adelaide United again in this partnership which gives something back to the local community,” Mr Jones said.

“The local South Australian community has always, and continues to be very loyal to us and we very much appreciate this support.”

“Of significant appeal to us was that this community program reaches beyond the inner Adelaide Metro area and touches regional communities both in South Australia and the Northern Territory.”

“Supporting this, Stratco employs local people across many of these regions with stores located in Darwin, Alice Springs, Port Lincoln, Port Augusta, Whyalla, the Riverland, Murray Bridge, Mount Gambier, Goolwa, Victor Harbor as well as our six metropolitan stores around Adelaide. Wouldn’t it be great if one of these school children who are lucky enough to attend one of these coaching clinics ends up playing for Adelaide United – that would be sensational!”
