AFLW Cats team up with Bellarine businesses

THE GEELONG Cats has welcomed two Bellarine Peninsula-based partners on board ahead of the 2025 AFLW season.

Curlewis Golf Club has jumped on as an elite partner and will enjoy significant in-game exposure through LED signage and digital assets at all Geelong AFLW home games.

In a further celebration of local support, Jack Rabbit Vineyard will continue to be the club’s exclusive wine partner for the coming season.

Geelong Cats chief operating officer Marcus King welcomed the additions.

“We are pleased to have Curlewis Golf Club and Jack Rabbit Vineyard partner with our AFLW program,” he said

“As a new partner we’re looking forward to building a partnership of success and collaboration with Curlewis, and we are delighted to continue partner with Jack Rabbit, a respected and premium brand.”

The Sharp Group (which owns both Curlewis Golf Club and Jack Rabbit Vineyard)’s director of marketing, sales and hospitality Lyndsay Sharp said the partnership was a natural fit.

“All at Curlewis Golf Club are extremely proud to come on board as an Elite Partner of Geelong Cats AFLW.

“The synergies between the ongoing Curlewis commitment to progressing women’s golf and the AFLW journey are incredibly strong, so it was an absolute no-brainer!”

Geelong will host reigning AFLW premiers North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 of the season on August 16.
