The one-year partnership will see Agnico Eagle integrated across a wide range of club assets, including uniform branding, broadcast visibility, game day activations, hospitality, and community engagement initiatives. The partnership also includes a prominent role in the Spirit’s Indigenous Round, with Agnico Eagle supporting cultural experiences and storytelling that celebrate the Dja Dja Wurrung people and their connection to Country.
Agnico Eagle will also be recognised as a Supporting Partner of the ‘Spirit Combine’, helping to foster pathways for emerging talent and contributing to the development of future stars in women’s basketball.
Dan Jackson, General Manager of Bendigo Spirit, said the partnership reflects the shared values between the club and Agnico Eagle.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Agnico Eagle to the Bendigo Spirit family. Their commitment to community, excellence and regional pride aligns perfectly with our values. This partnership will not only enhance our game day experience but also strengthen our connection to the community through meaningful initiatives like the Indigenous Round and the Spirit Combine. We’re excited to work together and deliver a season full of impact both on and off the court.”
Ion Hann, Vice President, Australian Operations for Agnico Eagle added:
“Partnering with Bendigo Spirit is a natural fit for us. We’re proud to support a team that represents the heart of regional Victoria and champions women’s sport at the highest level. This partnership allows us to engage with the community in new and exciting ways, and we look forward to being part of the Spirit’s journey this season.”
The Spirit’s title defence gets underway on October 19, when they host fellow 2024-25 Grand Finalists, Townsville Fire, at Red Energy Arena in Bendigo.
