The SAAFL is the largest Australian Rules football competition in South Australia. The League represents 67 Clubs and 10,000 registered players. There are more than 220 teams playing over 23 divisions.

The SAAFL is very proactive in promoting to its membership base in the form of newsletters, websites and social media. The sponsorship now gives Clipsal strong exposure to this audience with regular print and online profiles and advertising banners.

"The sponsorship is great fit for the Clipsal brand, said Paul McFarlane. Supporting football at all levels has been a big part of the company’s DNA for decades. Many of our electrical contractor customers and their staff play in the local competition and it’s great for us to show our support to those who support us."

As part of the sponsorship, Clipsal is offering SAAFL Members who are building or renovating exclusive benefits when they visit The Clipsal Powerhouse Display Centre on 6/69 Sir Donald Bradman Drive, Hilton.

The Clipsal Powerhouse open weekdays and allows you call in to see, touch, feel and experience everything electrical that you can have for your home. While there, visitors can make an appointment with a trained Clipspec consultant to undertake the entire electrical specification of your home on screen right in front of you.

SAAFL members with their building or renovation plans at the ready are entitled to a 10% discount off the Clipspec electrical specification consultation fee. And for those who take advantage of the offer will go into a draw to win four double general admission passes (eight tickets in total) to the 2011 Clipsal 500.
