2021-22 AIHL Brisbane Sponsorship Packages COMMERCIAL IN CONFIDENCEaihlbrisbane.com.au ABOUT THE AIHL The Australian Ice Hockey League was formed 2000 and has since evolved into an 8-team national competition including teams from Sydney, Newcastle, Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth. Each team play each other four times, twice at home and twice away with each team playing a total of 28 games a season which runs from April through to August each year. At the completion of the normal season the top four teams enter the AIHL Finals Weekend where the semi final is held with the grand final the following day. The winner of the Grand Final is awarded the Goodall Cup. There is also an All-Star Weekend held annually in June featuring Team North (CBR Brave, Newcastle Northstars, Sydney Bears and Sydney Ice Dogs) take on Team South (Adelaide Adrenaline, Melbourne Ice, Melbourne Mustangs and Perth Thunder) in a series of skills events and eventually competing in a “friendly” game at the end of the weekend. Ice hockey in Australia is fast becoming a household name with over 4700 registered players (IIHF 2020) and connections with leagues over the world including the National Hockey League (NHL) in Canada and USA, the sports reach doesn’t stop at our border. COMMERCIAL IN CONFIDENCE ABOUT AIHL BRISBANE While most major cities within Australia field an AIHL team, the state of Queensland has not had a competitive team since 2012. In an effort to bring the AIHL back to Queensland, AIHL Brisbane look to be the ninth team added to the competition by playing exhibition games as a provisional team in 2021, with the hope of securing acceptance into the league in 2022. Establishing a team within any sporting code has its challenges without adding the extra hurdles of limited ice rinks available. However, the club has a dedicated and experienced management committee at the helm and the local ice hockey community will have confidence that this team deserves a place within the AIHL. With the strong interest and support from previous AIHL games hosted in Brisbane selling out (Melbourne Ice vs Sydney Bears “Brisbane Battle” 2016) and having attendance of the USA vs Canada Ice Hockey Classic reaching over 6000 people. It is evident there is a passionate fan base ready to support a Queensland team. The AIHL Brisbane management team has extensive experience in various areas including marketing, and have created a campaign that seeks to reach as far as possible in order to promote the club, the brand and your business. This is a unique opportunity to create something special from the start and we would love the opportunity to go on this journey with you and your business.
