Padel New Zealand is proud to partner with HEAD, the globally renowned leader in padel equipment, through a multi-year sponsorship agreement that has supported us since 2023 and now extends through 2026. This collaboration marks an important milestone in our mission to promote and grow the sport of padel across New Zealand.
When seeking a long-term partner, it was vital for us to find an organisation that shared our passion for padel and recognised the potential for growth here in Aotearoa. From our first conversations with HEAD, it was clear we shared the same vision and enthusiasm - and together we’ve already developed exciting ideas to strengthen the sport at every level.
HEAD has a powerful global presence in padel, supporting the game from grassroots initiatives through to elite international competition. The brand sponsors many of the world’s top players, including Ariana Sánchez Fallada and Arturo Coello.
Grant Williams, from Sportco Ltd (HEAD Racquet Sports New Zealand distributor), says:
“We are proud to align with and support Padel New Zealand to help grow the sport within New Zealand. HEAD provides the latest technology in padel racquets, balls, accessories, gear, footwear, and apparel.
We look forward to working closely with the Padel New Zealand team, attending events, and engaging actively with the community. Exciting times lie ahead as padel continues to be the fastest-growing racket sport in the world.”
We’re looking forward to unveiling the incredible opportunities this collaboration has to offer. It’s an exciting time for padel in New Zealand!
