WISE Employment is excited to continue its support of Hawthorn FC’s AFLW team ahead of the club’s second season kicking off in early September.
Not only will the partnership with WISE Employment provide commercial support to the club’s AFLW program as they enter their second season, but it will also assist the playing group with employment opportunities and professional and personal development off the field.
Heading up Hawthorn’s AFLW side again is Bec Goddard OAM, a passionate advocate for diversity and inclusion in Australian sport. Goddard holds the rare title of coaching in two elite women’s sports; the AFLW and WNBL. In recent years, she led a league-first-all-female coaching panel of Hawthorn VFLW, alongside her full-time career with the Australian Federal Police.
The entire Hawthorn AFLW coaching panel will proudly don the WISE Employment logo on their apparel and during the season, WISE will work closely with the club ahead of their AFLW Pride Match aligned with the Rainbow WISE program.
Hawthorn Acting CEO, Ash Klein, is thrilled to continue the relationship with WISE Employment, uniting on a mission to support elite sportswomen and inspire the next generation of athletes.
“Both Hawthorn and WISE Employment are committed to empowering women to reach their full potential both on and off the field, which is why this partnership is a great fit for the Hawks’ AFLW program.”
WISE Employment Deputy CEO Ary Laufer was also delighted to continue this two-year journey with Hawthorn.
“We look forward to continuing our work together to encourage the club’s broader community to get behind our shared mission to promote diversity and inclusion, as well as empower women in every aspect of their lives.”
WISE Employment will aim to be at the forefront of helping shape female sporting leaders and the next generation of Hawthorn AFLW talent.
To celebrate the continuation of our partnership, WISE Employment are giving away 8 Hawthorn AFLW memberships with the opportunity for one of the lucky winners to claim a spot in the 2023 team photo.
