BBNZ was delighted to take out the Commercial Partnership Award at the New Zealand Sport & Recreation Awards last night, for its epic partnership with Schick!
Basketball New Zealand and Schick have been working together since 2017, and their latest collaboration is helping communities across New Zealand keep up with the booming demand for grassroots basketball. Basketball New Zealand has a vision of “a hoop in the heart of every community”, but an absence of indoor and outdoor facilities can make it hard for would-be ballers in smaller spots across the motu. The new 2023 campaign, Schick NeighbourHoops, saw Schick commit to funding 10 new basketball hoops across Aotearoa — with the public voting for the most worthy locations via a social media campaign. This, combined with the 2020 Schick Everyday Ballers campaign, has seen huge engagement and brand awareness for both partners, with a reach of 2.6 million people and a permanent brand presence in 10 new basketball communities.

👉 Our Hoops In Schools programme has travelled to some incredible places over the years, but none as scenic as Matakana Island! 😍 Earlier this month, we teamed up with Tall Blacks Ethan Rusbatch to deliver new hoops at Te Kura o Te Moutere O Matakana off the Tauranga coast. We had an absolute blast with the tamariki, shooting hoops and chatting about all things basketball 🏀 We were also fortunate to utilise several new hoops at Mercury Baypark with other local schools, installed as part of our Hoops in Parks initiative 🙌 ➡️ This wouldn’t have happened without some fantastic mahi from Tauranga City Basketball Association 2.0 and the amazing ongoing support from the New Zealand Community Trust 👉 Where should we go next whānau? 👀 🎥 Roshysportfolio
