The Uni-Norths Owls Rugby Club is proud to open expressions of interest for sponsorship partnerships for the 2026 season, a landmark year that will mark 25 years since the merger of the Norths and Universities rugby clubs to form the Owls.

Following an exceptional 2025 season, the club enters 2026 with strong momentum, a premiership to defend, and a continued commitment to excellence both on and off the field.

A Club Built on Success

2025 was one of the most successful seasons in the club’s history. The Owls claimed the Men’s 1st Grade premiership, the first since the club’s formation in 2001 and the first men’s top-grade title linked to the club since 1992. In addition, our Premier Women’s and 3rd Grade teams progressed to grand finals, while the vast majority of Owls teams qualified for finals football, an achievement unmatched by any other ACT club.

This success reflects not only performance on the field, but the strength of our culture, coaching programs and support networks.

Why Sponsor the Owls?

Sponsorship plays a vital role in enabling the Uni-Norths Owls to operate as one of the ACT’s leading semi-professional rugby clubs. Support from our partners helps us to:

• Field multiple teams across ACT competitions
• Provide medical, physiotherapy and wellbeing support for players
• Invest in coaching, development programs and training equipment
• Maintain access to quality facilities and match day operations

Just as importantly, sponsorship helps foster the strong sense of community that defines the Owls, a culture that attracts players, volunteers and supporters from across Canberra and beyond.

A Unique Opportunity in 2026

The 2026 season represents a unique opportunity to partner with the club during a milestone year. The Owls expect to again field six men’s teams and two women’s teams, supported by stable coaching groups and strong player numbers, while defending the men’s premiership title.

Our sponsors benefit from meaningful exposure through:

• Branding on playing, training and leisure apparel
• Promotion across our website and social media platforms
• Visibility at home games and events at ANU North Oval
• Opportunities to engage directly with the Owls community

We are also open to discussing multi-year partnerships, which allow the club to plan strategically while offering long-term value for our sponsors.
