The Magic netball team is delighted to announce the renewal of their sponsorship with Manuka Performance, specialists in food-based nutrition and athletic performance products. This partnership continues to strengthen the bond between two prominent organisations committed to excellence and community support.
Tristan Vine, CEO of Manuka Performance, expressed his enthusiasm for the renewed partnership, stating, "We are thrilled to renew our commitment to the Magic for another season.
As a Bay of Plenty business, we value supporting local and promoting our regional success. The whole team and organisation at Magic are amazing, fun to work with, and genuinely get a lot out of our products. It’s also great to promote the Magic and showcase our New Zealand sport to our international markets and partners, especially the USA."
The collaboration between Manuka Performance and the Magic Netball team has been built on shared values and a mutual passion for excellence. "It’s incredible to partner with teams like the Magic because the passion and vibe of the ladies carries across very well. Highly relational, fun, and engaging – it all comes down to doing good things with good people," Vine added.
Manuka Performance is at the forefront of combining traditional Māori knowledge with modern science to enhance athletic performance and health. Vine emphasized the importance of this aspect, saying, "As a Māori manufacturing and export company playing on the world stage, we are leading the conversation in food-based nutrition, science, and athletic performance/health.
Being able to authentically tell the Rongoa story, knowledge, and history of Mānuka and its modern application with professional athletes and nutrition science is important for global markets. The Magic team exemplifies how a great relationship based on good values and authenticity should work in telling this story."
