Nissan, a big Australian netball supporter, is expanding its interest in the sport by securing naming rights of the Queensland State Netball Centre for the next three years.
Nissan Arena, the new indoor sports stadium features a 5000-seat capacity, is an extension of Nissan’s investment and support of netball in Queensland.
The arena is home to Suncorp Super netball team the Queensland Firebirds and Netball Queensland.
Nissan Australia has been the official automotive partner of Netball Queensland and the Queensland Firebirds for the past three years.
“Nissan Arena is the centre piece of netball in Queensland, and we are proud to be associated with this wonderful new venue and the wide assortment of teams that will call these courts home,” Nissan Australia managing director Stephen Lester says.
“Nissan is committed to netball. Netball for Nissan is not just about national or super netball teams, our focus is on the community. These fantastic facilities will be enjoyed by many athletes of different standards, helping personal development and to foster a further love of the game.”
Nissan also owns the naming rights for the Queensland Cup and the Queensland youth championships, events that support grassroots netball across the state.
“Netball Queensland and Nissan Australia have enjoyed a strong partnership focused on growing the support of netball in Queensland and this sponsorship takes that relationship to the next level,” Netball Queensland chief executive Catherine Clarke says.
“Nissan Arena offers fans a full and glorious spectator experience, with a world-class stadium and premium facilities to enhance the thrill of game day.”
