Netball holds the position of the number one participation sport for girls in Australia, providing a significant platform to advance women's health initiatives. HCF's Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Lorraine Thomas, highlighted the partnership's purpose, stating that investing in women's sport is a direct and meaningful way to enhance community health.
The extended agreement also includes a two-year continuation of HCF's principal partnership with GIANTS Netball. In 2026, HCF will celebrate a decade of collaboration with the club, reflecting a shared commitment to women's sport and ongoing investment in the Greater Sydney community. Additionally, HCF is expanding its presence in the league by welcoming the Melbourne Mavericks into the partnership for the 2026 season, aiming to connect with a new generation of fans.
Beyond sponsorship, the partnership focuses on collaboration and health education. Initiatives such as HCF's Team Health Score™ will return during the 2026 Super Netball season, offering fans real-time insights into team performance across physical, mental, and support metrics. Furthermore, the 'Game Day Ready' content series will feature Super Netball athletes sharing their preparation routines, covering aspects like nutrition, digital wellness, and balancing elite sport with work, study, and family life.
Netball Australia's Executive General Manager of Super League and Commercial, Christine Finnegan, welcomed HCF's continued commitment, emphasizing the shared goal of empowering Australians to lead active and healthy lives. This partnership not only supports the sport but also aligns with broader health objectives, making a positive impact on communities nationwide.
