The Essendon Royals Soccer Club is delighted to announce Optus, one of Australia’s leading telecommunications companies, as the new naming rights sponsor for the beloved Kick-Starters program. Henceforth, the initiative will be known as the “Optus Kick-Starters at Essendon Royals,” a title reflecting our mutual commitment to nurturing young talent and promoting soccer at the grassroots level.
