Sydney FC and Billbergia will continue their partnership for at least another year, after agreeing on an extension for the Liberty A-League and academy sides.

Billbergia, a residential, commercial, retail, and hospitality company, has been actively involved in creating communities within Sydney and New South Wales for over three decades – they have been associated with the Sky Blues since 2021

Billbergia will host an event for young adults involving Sydney FC’s fan experience teams at its new multi-million dollar Indoor Sports Centre in Camellia. In addition, ahead of the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia and New Zealand, the property group will be the presenting partner of Sydney FC’s Women in Football Event.

Billbergia Managing Director and Owner John Kinsella said via press release:

“We’re thrilled to continue our partnership with Sydney FC Women & Youth Academy for 2023 in our shared mission to build community football by creating more opportunities for women and children to participate. We believe we can make a difference by investing in and supporting players across multiple sports, and across all ages and abilities.”

Billbergia’s logo will continue to adorn the sleeve of the Sky Blues A-League Women’s jersey, as well as the back of all Sydney FC youth academies playing kit, as part of the renewal.

Sydney FC CEO Adam Santo, speaking on the partnership renewal, added via press release:

“Billbergia have been an excellent addition to our group of corporate partners, and we are looking forward to another great year with them on board. Their key values of creating and inspiring communities align with Sydney FC’s own vision and we keen to continue helping each other realize these passions. It’s a successful relationship for the long-term.”

The renewal of this partnership will strengthen the standards for sports fans, schools, and local communities in Sydney and all across New South Wales. With the help of Billbergia and Sydney FC’s fan experience teams, their objective is to increase engagement and participation in sports and recreation in communities.
