Plus500 Brumbies to Partner with O'Neills

The Plus500 Brumbies are delighted to announce a new partnership with kit manufacturer O’Neills which will see the firm become the Official Apparel Supplier of the club.
 
Under the partnership O’Neills and the Brumbies will launch a new range of match apparel including home and away jersey’s with O’Neills also providing all elements of Brumbies staff and player’s official teamwear. They will, of course, also cater for fans with official club merchandise.

O’Neills is a brand rich in heritage, renowned for being the largest sportswear manufacturing company in Ireland since being founded in 1918 and launched in Australia in 2015.
 
O’Neill’s has an international reputation for providing the highest quality clothing and manufacture from their own fabrics allowing them to specially design garments to meet the short delivery dates dictated by the market. They will customise garments in their embroidery and print departments to satisfy the needs of the club.
 
“We are excited about entering this partnership with O’Neills, a recognised brand around the World, who are renowned for providing high quality sportswear,” Plus500 Brumbies CEO Phil Thomson commented.
 
“The designs and samples we have seen for the new range of Brumbies sporting apparel are superb and we are confident that the new home and away jersey’s, when launched, will be well received by the Brumbies fanbase.”
 
The Brumbies will be the latest Canberra-based rugby club to utilise O’Neills as a supplier joining the Canberra Vikings who sported the manufacturer’s gear during the recent National Rugby Championships (NRC) and a host of local Griffin Legal John I Dent Cup sides.
 
“O’Neills is delighted to partner with the Plus 500 Brumbies for the 2019 and 2020 Rugby seasons as official kit provider,” Antoinette Brophy, O’Neills Australasia General Manager said.
 
“Both organisations have strong and successful histories and our values clearly align.  It is very exciting to be able to combine the passion and expertise from both sides into a formidable partnership striving to give the best possible service to Brumbies members and supporters. 
 
“We are very excited about this partnership and very much look forward to working with the Brumbies team and to provide the very highest-level quality and service.”
 
The Brumbies will launch their new 2019 Super Rugby home and away jerseys at Brumbies HQ on Monday 19 November with the kit making its competitive debut in the team’s opening match of the season when the Rebels provide the opposition at GIO Stadium on Friday 15 February 2019.
