The Wellington Phoenix has announced another signing – an off-field one. The team has appointed Clemenger BBDO as its official advertising partner for the coming season.

“The agency will have responsibility for all the Phoenix creative artwork as well as assisting in the promotional plan for the season,” said Phoenix General Manager David Dome.

“We are absolutely thrilled with this new partnership and look forward to Clemenger joining the club in the next part of the journey.”

"Partnering with the Phoenix is a way for us to support yet another Wellington success,” said Clemenger MD Andrew Holt. “They bring the world’s game to Wellington and being at a Phoenix game is arguably one the best entertainment experiences you can have.”

“One of the first things we'll be working on together is our plan for the 2012-13 season membership drive,” Dome said. “We envisage having memberships on sale by the end of July.”
