WFNL WELCOMES BELGRAVIA APPAREL AS NEW NETBALL NAMING RIGHTS PARTNER

The Western Football Netball League (WFNL) is thrilled to announce a strategic partnership with Belgravia Apparel (BA), resulting in the renaming of the WFNL Netball Competition to the WFNL Belgravia Apparel Netball Competition. This exciting collaboration marks a significant milestone in the growth and development of netball in the western region of Melbourne.

As the WFNL prepares for a period of significant expansion, the partnership with Belgravia Apparel will provide invaluable support and resources. With the expected addition of new teams, umpires, and players in 2025 and beyond the WFNL Netball Competition is poised to experience substantial growth and become a powerhouse in the Victorian netball landscape.

Belgravia Apparel’s recent acquisition of SCD Apparel Pty Ltd (SCD) further solidifies their presence in the western region. SCD’s premises in Truganina is now serving as a dedicated local service hub, catering to the needs of WFNL Member Clubs and associations. As the Western Branch for the Belgravia Apparel Division, this facility provides convenient access to both netball and football apparel for the league.

WFNL CEO David Jennings expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “We are delighted to welcome Belgravia Apparel as a naming rights partner for our Netball Competition. This collaboration aligns perfectly with our vision of growing and strengthening netball in the west. With their support, we are confident in our ability to create a thriving and inclusive environment for netballers.”
