June 30, 2014

BLK has been confirmed as the new official apparel supplier to Australian A-League football team the Newcastle Jets.

The three-year partnership will see the sportswear manufacturer produce playing and training kits for the club, ailment as well as merchandise for the Jets’ A-League and youth teams.

BLK, a subsidiary of WRS Group, recently closed a similar deal for the A-League All Stars match, but the deal with the Jets marks their first with a team.

Jets commercial director Mark Duffield-Thomas said: “This is one of the largest sponsorship deals in the club’s history.

“When we took this opportunity to market it was important for us to secure a strong partner that recognises the potential of football and wants to partner with the Jets.”

BLK is well known in the region through their sponsorships across National Rugby League, Super Rugby and AFL.
