PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT

Central Football are delighted to announce a new partnership with Yorb, commencing 2020. This partnership will see Yorb hold naming rights to the 3 Premierships for the next 3 years, being Yorb Pacific Premiership (covering Poverty Bay and Hawke’s Bay), the Yorb Horizons Premiership (Manawatu and Whanganui) and the Yorb Taranaki Premiership.

Central Football Chief Executive Officer Darren Mason said “Yorb has been a long-standing supporter of the Federation in their previous name of ComputerCare, having had naming rights to the Pacific Premiership since 2013. We are delighted that Yorb has chosen to expand on their support to a level that will benefit football Federation wide, and proud that they see our game as a good vehicle to promote their business and recent brand change. Yorb is a provider of technology solutions who over the last few months have worked extensively with Central Football in improving our IT systems, and in particular moving to a cloud-based system. With locations in Napier, Palmerston North and Whanganui they are well placed to provide services across the whole Federation and we encourage our stakeholders to reciprocate the generous support given to our game by making Yorb your preferred supplier of IT solutions”.    

“It gives us much pleasure to expand on and extend our long-standing relationship with Central Football” said Yorb Client Manager Chris Shakeshaft. “We discussed their strategic plans and what they were trying to do, including in growing the game, and gave them a helicopter view of how things could be. Yorb’s philosophy is to help businesses see technology as a business enabler. With Yorb’s help Central Football’s ability to access information is now seamless whether they’re in the office, a cafe or pitch-side with their mobile device through the Office 365 suite of apps”.

The Yorb Pacific Premiership, Yorb Horizons Premiership and the Yorb Taranaki Premiership are scheduled to kick off in the first weekend in April 2020. Make sure you check out the draw and all the action by following Central Football on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
