Melbourne FC seals extension with New Balance

US sportswear company New Balance has renewed its partnership with AFL Aussie rules football team Melbourne FC.

New Balance will continue to serve as Melbourne’s official on-field apparel partner for the 2017 to 2019 seasons after signing a new three-year deal with the club.

Under the agreement, New Balance will supply the club with bespoke playing and training kits for 2017. New Balance designers have worked with Melbourne players to create the apparel.

New Balance has been in partnership with Melbourne for the past six years and also holds a sponsorship agreement with club captain Nathan Jones (pictured).
