The National Rugby League (NRL) has today announced Witzer as the new naming rights partner for the Pre-Season Challenge which kicks off tonight when the Sharks host the Warriors in Sydney.
The two-year agreement with Witzer, a project management platform for the construction industry, will also see its branding appear on the referees' sleeves for next weekend's All-Stars matches.
NRL CEO Andrew Abdo said the Witzer Pre-Season Challenge gives fans their long-awaited first taste of NRL action ahead of the new season.
"A new NRL season brings excitement and fresh hope for fans after a long summer without football.
"With matches all over Australia and New Zealand, including regional areas, the Witzer Pre-Season challenge is the first chance for fans to see all 17 teams take the field with their new recruits and champions of the future."
Witzer General Manager, Angela King said the partnership with the NRL is a natural fit.
"As a brand that champions the hardworking spirit of everyday Australians, we recognise the importance of work-life balance, and we know that for many people, footy isn't just a game - it's a way to unwind, de-stress, and connect with friends after a hard day's work. The NRL has a long-standing reputation for excitement, innovation, and professionalism - values that strongly align with our own commitment to quality and service.
"Aussies love footy, and footy is a great way to relax and recharge - especially after a big week on the tools or an even bigger weekend of renovating. We are proud to bring these two powerful brands together and create unforgettable experiences for our customers, our partners, and rugby league fans across the country"
All 2025 Witzer Pre-Season Challenge matches will be broadcast live and exclusive on Kayo Sports and Foxtel. The full draw is available here.
