Hockey NT and NT News Partner to Amplify Support for the Territory Stingers and the Festival of Hockey

Hockey NT is thrilled to announce a strategic partnership with NT News, aimed at elevating the visibility of the Territory Stingers and strengthening our ability to share the inspiring story of hockey in the Northern Territory.

This collaboration underscores our mutual commitment to celebrating the achievements of our hockey community and bringing the broader NT community along on this exciting journey.

The Territory Stingers, with their unwavering and widespread support that spans across the NT and beyond, now have a valuable platform to reach an even wider audience. Through enhanced media coverage and promotional efforts facilitated by NT News, we aim to deepen our connection with the NT community while showcasing the significant positive impact hockey has both locally and on a larger scale.

The upcoming Festival of Hockey, scheduled for Friday, 20th September, and Saturday, 21st September at the MWT Hockey Centre, will greatly benefit from this partnership. As the Territory Stingers face off against the reigning Hockey One champions, the Brisbane Blaze, the event is set to be a thrilling display of top end hockey talent and community spirit.

With the support of NT News, we are confident that the event will captivate a broader audience, highlighting not just the excitement of the matches but also the compelling stories behind our players and the community-driven spirit that fuels hockey in the Territory.

HNT CEO, Jason Butcher, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “This collaboration with NT News is another important step forward in our mission to elevate the profile of hockey in the Northern Territory. By sharing the stories of our athletes, coaches, and volunteers, we are bringing to life the passion and dedication that drives our community. We’re immensely grateful to NT News for their support in helping us bring these stories to a wider audience and in furthering our goal to grow the game in the Territory.”

This partnership marks an important milestone in our ongoing efforts to promote the sport of hockey in the NT and to ensure that the stories of our athletes, coaches, and volunteers are heard far and wide. We extend our gratitude to NT News for their commitment to this shared vision and for helping us promote our story.
