Manchester City’s Women’s team, have teamed up with QNET, the international direct selling company, to launch the FA Women’s Super League 1’s first sleeve partnership – making City the first club in the Premier League and Women’s Super League to have a sleeve partner.
The announcement sees a deepening of QNET’s long standing relationship with Manchester City and was announced at the annual VCON conference in Malaysia last week.
City striker Pauline Bremer attended the event and took part in a Q&A about the women’s team and the growth of women’s football across the globe.
QNET will also feature in bespoke Manchester City Women’s player content which will be developed throughout the 2018/19 season.
This will include a series of co-branded fan content, a match day LED presence, exclusive fan competitions and bespoke digital activations with players.
Commenting on the deal, Gavin Makel, Head of Women’s Football at Manchester City said:
“The women’s team at Manchester City is delighted to partner with QNET who are leaders in their industry.
“Women’s football is on the rise and connecting with our growing fan base in Asia, where QNET has a strong presence, is important to everyone at the Club.
“Working together with QNET, we hope we can bring the magic of women’s football to even more people and provide our supporters across the globe with the opportunity to get even closer to Manchester City’s women’s team.”
Trevor Kuna, QNET’s Chief Executive Officer, added:
“QNET has been empowering entrepreneurs for 20 years now, and we have a strong female salesforce.
“We are truly proud to be teaming up with Manchester City in the female sports sponsorship arena as the first-ever sleeve sponsor of a FA Women’s Super League 1 team.
“This is a major step for us, and it sends a strong signal that QNET is committed to empowering women across the globe.
“Manchester City’s values resonate with our own, and we were particularly inspired by their Same City, Same Passion campaign launched earlier this year.
“We too believe the skills, determination and passion are the same for both men and women regardless of whether it’s in football or direct sales.”
