Football Federation Australia has entered into a partnership with sportswear company BLK.
The four-year deal covers the 2016-17 to 2019-20 seasons and names BLK as the official referee apparel supplier of FFA.
Under the agreement, BLK will produce match and training apparel for referees in the men’s A-League, women’s W-League and National Youth League competitions. The range has been custom designed using the latest sportswear technology.
“With both the A-League and football in Australia exploding it is fantastic that the BLK brand will be on the pitch at every game,” BLK chief executive Tyron Brant said. “On a global stage there is a strong push into football from BLK and this partnership will just add to the credibility of BLK in the football market.”
BLK, an Australian company, currently sponsors the A-League's Newcastle Jets.
