Phoenix hit the road with Budget Car & Truck Rental in NBL27

One of Australia's most recognised and trusted vehicle rental brands, Budget shares the Phoenix's commitment to community and delivering outstanding experiences, making the partnership a natural fit.

As part of the agreement, Budget branding will feature prominently on the front of the Phoenix's home and away jerseys, as well as the club's training apparel. Phoenix members will also receive exclusive discounts and special offers on vehicle rentals throughout the partnership.

Phoenix CEO Simon Derrick welcomed Budget to the Heartland ahead of the NBL27 campaign.

"We're thrilled to welcome Budget to the South East Melbourne Phoenix family," Derrick said.

"Budget has a long and proud history of supporting Australian sport, so it's fantastic to have them make their first investment in the NBL with the Phoenix.

"This partnership is about more than just two great brands coming together. Our members and supporters will also benefit through exclusive offers from Budget, making it even easier to access quality vehicle hire whenever they need it."

Thomas Mooney, Managing Director, Pacific at Budget said the partnership reflects Budget's ongoing commitment to supporting Australian sport and creating greater value for customers.

"At Budget, we're passionate about helping Australians get to the moments that matter, whether that's travelling for work, a family holiday, or cheering on their favourite team. Partnering with the South East Melbourne Phoenix is an exciting opportunity to connect with one of the country's fastest-growing sporting communities while supporting a club that shares our focus on performance, accessibility and community."

"We're proud to join the Phoenix as a Premier Partner for the NBL27 season and look forward to delivering exclusive benefits to members and fans, while helping drive the club's continued success both on and off the court."
