Today s announcement of an 11-year sponsorship extension represents an overwhelming vote of confidence in Australian football and it s incredibly exciting future, said FFA CEO Ben Buckley. It s a powerful symbol of the emerging strength of the game in this country. I thank Nike for their unwavering commitment to Australian football and their substantial investment in the game.
