WFNL PARTNERS WITH GILBERT, ELEVEATING NETBALL TO NEW HEIGHTS
The Western Football Netball League (WFNL) is excited to announce a new partnership with Gilbert, a global leader in sports equipment. This exciting collaboration will see Gilbert become the exclusive netball supplier for the WFNL for the next two years.
“We are thrilled to partner with Gilbert,” said David Jennings, CEO of the WFNL.
“This partnership underscores our commitment to providing our netball clubs and players with the highest quality equipment. Gilbert’s reputation for excellence aligns perfectly with our vision of elevating netball in the western suburbs.”
Gilbert netballs are renowned for their quality and performance, used by top-tier teams and leagues worldwide, including the Diamonds and Suncorp Super Netball. This partnership will ensure that WFNL netballers have access to the same premium equipment used by elite athletes.
Furthermore, Gilbert offers clubs the opportunity to customise netballs with their club branding, enhancing team identity and fostering a sense of community.
“We are delighted to partner with the Western Football Netball League (WFNL) for at least the next two years,” Gilbert Netball Brand Manager, Rebecca Gray said.
“This partnership deal will continue to strengthen the links Gilbert has from the elite level to the grassroots, with the very same equipment used by the stars of the Diamonds and Suncorp Super Netball set to be on show across the WFNL region from 2025.
“We are excited to watch this partnership over the coming years and support the growth of netball within the western suburbs.”
The recent announcement of the addition of a third venue for the 2025 WFNL Belgravia Apparel Netball Competition is testament to the growth of netball in the west. In 2024, Netball saw a remarkable surge, with a 34% increase in teams, 32% more matches, and a 26% rise in player registrations.
This partnership with Gilbert reinforces the WFNL’s commitment to providing exceptional opportunities for netballers of all ages and abilities.
