Helloworld brings volleyball thrills to primetime TV

Channel 7’s breakfast show Sunrise visited iconic Manly Beach to meet with some of the Helloworld Volleyroos, following the retailer’s recent sponsorship deal with Volleyball Australia.

Helloworld has recently signed on as the major sponsor and travel partner of Volleyball Australia, including gaining the naming rights to the national men’s and women’s teams, now known as the helloworld Volleyroos.

The teams were in Manly for Volleyfest, the huge beach volleyball festival running until Monday March 28 which includes the Asian Beach Volleyball Championships and the Four Nations Cup.

Helloworld chief executive Andrew Burnes said the company was delighted with the coverage its sponsorship of Volleyball Australia was receiving.

“It’s been a perfect start to Volleyfest which is the first major tournament since Helloworld and Volleyball Australia partnered together to grow the sport and support our athletes as they strive for gold,” he said.

“Helloword is very excited to be here at Volleyfest supporting Volleyball Australia. It’s a great way to showcase Australia’s sporting talent and picturesque tourist destinations like Manly Beach. The atmosphere and the crowds are making it a very successful tournament. A lot of the Helloworld team and our agents are down here supporting the helloworld Volleyroos.”

Volleyball Australia president Craig Carracher described Helloworld as the “perfect addition” to the Volleyball Australia family.

“Helloworld are genuinely committed to helping the sport grow and for our national teams to succeed,” he said. “It’s exciting to see our sport, the athletes and beautiful Manly Beach on display for the whole country to see.”
