The Wellington Lions are pleased to announce a significant new partnership with apparel brand BLK, who will be the supplier of all sports clothing and match day kit to the Wellington Lions and Wellington Rugby men’s representative teams.

Wellington Rugby CEO James Te Puni said, “BLK are a great fit for the Lions and our other Wellington Rep teams. They are innovative, hardworking and creative much like the teams we aim to produce in the Capital. We are delighted to be partnering with BLK.”

Catherine Casey, the Managing Director of BLK in New Zealand, is proud to embark on a new journey with the Lions. “BLK is honoured to be a strategic partner with the WRFU and looks forward to an exciting 2013 Season. For a union that prides itself on team before self and performance on and off the field, BLK will provide the edge the Lions require. Being in partnership with the WRFU is more than a sponsorship agreement – it takes us to grassroots rugby and strengthens a community together as one family. We look forward to the success of the WRFU, support of their fans and being part of the community and family.”
Along with sporting and supporting clothing, BLK will also provide training and leisure gear to the Lions.
