FERNWOOD FITNESS COMMITS AS NAMING RIGHTS SPONSOR

AFL North East Border Female Football League are excited to announce Fernwood Fitness as the major naming rights sponsor for the next three seasons. Moving forward the league will be known as the ‘Fernwood Fitness AFL North East Border Female Football League’. Fernwood Fitness will play a key role in supporting the sustained growth of female football in our region as the league will look to add more teams to the competition in the coming seasons. 

Fernwood Fitness and AFL North East Border Female Football League are similar in the fact that they both strive to provide an opportunity for females to participate in sports and physical activity to help connect with new people and improve their mental and physical well-being. 

League Manager Jack Penny was ecstatic to have a business such as Fernwood become the major sponsor. “To have Fernwood commit for the next three years is a great result for our league. I’m really excited to partner with Fernwood as we share similar values and we can work together to continue to encourage females to partake in sport and live a healthy lifestyle”. 

Fernwood Fitness also aims to help the league become one of the more professional and recognised country female football leagues throughout Victoria in which there is a genuine pathway to play AFLW. 

“We saw with the success of our girls at the V-Line Carnival in September that we have many aspiring young footballers in our league, so by teaming up with Fernwood we can continue to grow the league to give girls and women the best possible opportunity to be recognised and take the next step in their football”. 

Fernwood Fitness Albury club owner Julie Nixon and club manager Emily Dowlan, are thrilled to partner with the AFL North East Border Female Football League 

“We are very proud to be able to support local females incorporating sport and movement into their busy lifestyles. The opportunity to do this alongside such a well-established female football league in our region brings us great joy and we are so excited to see where the next three seasons take us.”
