Northern Region Football is proud to announce a new partnership with HART Sport. 

Working closely with member clubs, Northern Region Football helps enrich lives through futsal and football and enabling equity of access to the game in thriving club communities, goals that are closely aligned with HART Sport’s ambition of breaking barriers of entry and making sport inclusive for all.

Laura Menzies, CEO of Northern Region Football said of the partnership: "HART Sport really understands and sees the benefit of grassroots sport in our communities, and gets what’s needed to make it happen.

Our club volunteers already know the value in what they do, and we’re delighted to partner with HART Sport to roll out Whole of Football 2.0 with NRF clubs. It’s going to be an exciting season with opportunities for more young people to engage with football and develop their skills, and we couldn’t be more pleased to have HART Sport with us from the start."

Andrew Mills, HART Sports National Sales Manager said:“This partnership is another step in our goal of breaking down barriers of entry to sport in New Zealand. The team at Northern Region Football do an outstanding job in putting their clubs and community first, all in the hope of making sure everyone has a great experience when playing football.”

The partnership with Northern Region Football runs until the end of 2028, and will see HART Sport become the Official Sports Equipment Partner (excluding footballs).
