Gearing up for their second season in the NRLW competition, the Sharks are proud to announce a host of valued sponsors propelling the club's elite women's team towards success in 2024.
While Quest Apartment Hotels has taken the baton as Major Partner and front-of-jersey sponsor, the remaining partners are extending their support from the inaugural year.
Shore Hire (sternum of NRLW jersey plus junior reps sponsor), Minespec Parts (top back of NRLW jersey plus junior reps), Tyrepower (bottom back of NRLW jersey) and Menai Sand and Soil (front of NRLW shorts) have all recommitted to the team.
Sharks NRLW coach Tony Herman thanked the businesses for backing his talented squad ahead of a promising campaign, kicking off with a standalone home match against the Cowboys at PointsBet Stadium on July 27.
"We are extremely grateful to have terrific partners in Quest, Shore Hire, Minespec Parts, Tyrepower and Menai Sand and Soil behind our NRLW team as we look to build upon an encouraging first season," Herman said.
"It's with their loyal support that we're able to grow and develop our women's program in striving to establish ourselves as a leading NRLW side."
NRLW captain Tiana Penitani added: "It means a lot for our squad to know we have such dedicated sponsors with us on our exciting journey.
"We laid the foundations last season and now, with more experience, we're ready to push for the finals and make a statement. It's a great time for the club."
The NRLW Sharks finished sixth in 2023 with four wins and five losses, the highlight being a record-breaking 56-6 victory over the Eels in the final round.
Emma Tonegato, Annessa Biddle, Brooke Anderson, Rhiannon Byers and Chloe Saunders affirmed their faith in the Sharks by signing contract extensions over the summer, while ex-Black Fern Pia Tapsell will join the club from Super Rugby.
