Western Sydney Wanderers add MyHR to expand their large corporate base

Western Sydney Wanderers

Western Sydney Wanderers FC have confirmed that largescale human resources service, MyHR, have joined the club’s corporate family for the 2023/24 season.

In 2013, MyHR founders Jason Ennor and Sean O’Brien created the perfect launchpad for an innovative new product, a hybrid HR service that gives clients a specialised digital platform fully supported by a team of HR experts which prides itself on being ultimately scalable, integrated and exact.

For the 2023/24 season, MyHR will be displayed on all Wanderers Isuzu UTE A-League home match day LED signage, as well as continuing to be mentioned on the club’s official digital channels next season, like they were on the Man of The Match posts in 2022/23.

Western Sydney Wanderers CEO Scott Hudson welcomed MyHR to the corporate family.

“We would like to thank Jason and his team from MyHR and look forward to working with them over the next season.” he explained in a club statement about the partnership.

MyHR joins the long list of Western Sydney’s business partners in the club’s attempt to expand the brand beyond just the on field results.

The Wanderers in 2022 released a ‘Community Philosophy’ post on digital channels and their website in particular outlining the importance of corporate stakeholders to the club.

In the club website they state: ‘We are fully committed to providing the best partnerships for the club which will characterise and benefit the core Western Sydney Wanderers Community’.

MyHR Chief Executive Officer Jason Ennor outlined he connected well with the club and what they stand for.

“MyHR is thrilled to partner with the Western Sydney Wanderers as their HR Partner and chosen HR platform. Their values align perfectly with ours, and we look forward to many years of mutual success.”

This partnership has allowed fans to benefit directly with MyHR offering Wanderers members three months of free HR and Payroll, as well as 50% off MyHR’s guided onboarding fee.

This move is a positive one for the Wanderers, creating another connection to a corporate brand that appeals to a certain demographic of fans as well as financially helping the club move forward and succeed on and off the pitch.

Melbourne Victory’s brand-new infrastructure strategy

Melbourne Victory & SEDA

A-League giant Melbourne Victory has revealed a brand-new extensive infrastructure strategy to foster and support tomorrow’s footballing stars.

The strategic infrastructure plan set out by Victory will aim to develop youth and women’s football programs by providing improved access to world class footballing facilities and player pathways across Victoria.

To achieve this, Melbourne Victory has opted for a campus model to enable players access to connected and consistent facilities across the North, East, South and West of Melbourne, all within an hour’s journey of Victory’s club administrative centre and the A-League Men’s training facilities at Gosch’s Paddock.

The club also intends to build another campus within the Melbourne city centre, with the first campus location to be announced by the club soon, as it continues to review and assess possible sites across the city.

Melbourne Victory Chairman, John Dovaston, explained why the club had chosen the campus model.

“The announcement of this project, and the direction taken, is aimed at ensuring we are best placed to attract and retain football talent across the State,” he said in a press release.

“Our innovative approach will allow us to have a number of campuses with not only an elite focus, but also, an eye on building our community to ensure that all Victorians have an opportunity to participate and engage in our game.”

Melbourne Victory Managing Director, Caroline Carnegie, outlined why the new infrastructure strategy was so important to the club.

“It is well understood that sport and football can influence social cohesion, and it’s our responsibility as a Club to establish infrastructure and programs that can positively impact members of the community, regardless of gender, background or location, whether that be through training the next generation of football stars, or using football as a vehicle to lead, unite, connect and inspire the community more broadly,” she said via press release.

“By enabling Victory to connect with communities across the North, South, East, and West of AAMI Park, our spiritual home, we can truly grow the Victory family and set new standards for elite facilities in our Pathway and community programs.”

The infrastructure project is an important move for the club, allowing it to grow, improve and future-proof its current suite of footballing programs. Currently, Victory operates nine elite and 23 pathway programs, providing services to over 16,000 participants across Victoria. Through the campus model, the club hopes it will be able to more efficiently develop the new generation of A-League and national team players.

“The priority is to provide not just an entry point for individuals to engage and participate in football, but to keep them engaged and provide a holistic journey to grow the Victory family across the State,” Carnegie continued.

“We are excited about the opportunities that the project can provide and the potential for growth for our Club and for football in the future.”

Melbourne Victory will continue to issue updates as it sets on the 5-year-plus journey to complete the entire project. For more information on the club’s major infrastructure strategy, access the plan HERE.
