ANZ
Netball holds a very special place in both Australia and New Zealand. In both our countries, netball has one of the highest participation rates of any women’s sport. The ANZ Championship is the showcase of the game; a wonderful demonstration of the skill, dedication, power and passion needed to succeed at the very highest level. We are proud to have been the Principal Sponsor of the ANZ Championship since its inception in 2008 – the single largest female sport sponsorship across Australasia.
The ANZ Championship also epitomises the healthy trans-Tasman sporting rivalry that has fuelled some of the most memorable contests in history.
In 2012 ANZ further increased its commitment by offering grants programs in both countries and the program will continue in 2013. As an extension to our partnership with elite netball, these grants will focus on providing much needed support to netball at a local level. To find out more about the grants and how to apply visit www.anznetball.com.

HOLDEN - New Zealand only
Kiwis love their Holdens – and have done ever since the first FJ models arrived on the wharf from Australia back in 1954. The Holden heritage goes back even further – to J.A. Holden’s saddlery business in South Australia during the gold rush days of the 1850s.
It’s an exciting story of fantastic cars and passionate loyalties. It’s also a story of ongoing development – because the Holden vehicles of today have inherited the pedigree of quality and innovation established in those early years. Best of all, the story isn’t finished. Holden’s future will continue to be distinguished by the long-established principles of performance, safety, economy and style.
Holden is proud to be the driving force behind the ANZ Championship and the Silver Ferns.
