Perth Glory have announced a new three-year partnership with brand new Western Australian based and owned vehicle rental company, Dream Car Rental.

The massive deal means that Dream Car Rental’s logo will appear on Glory’s home, away and training apparel. The logo will also have a prominent sign at the club’s home ground, HBF park.

Dream Car Rental is an exciting new Western Australian vehicle rental service that is set to launch this October. When launched, the company will supply a wide range of vehicles and services. Some of these offerings will be basic passenger vehicles but also commercial class ones. Dream Car Rental will also offer an impressive range of vehicle classes from standard rentals all the way to luxury cars. Regarding services the new venture will boast the option for short term and long-term rentals as well as contactless delivery/collection.

This will be a whole new vehicle rental experience for Perth residents and visitors – something that both the club and Dream Car Rental hope will help to boost tourism to the West Australian capital.

Speaking on the club’s excitement at joining Dream Car Rental just in time for their grand launch, Glory CEO Anthony Radich spoke of the partnership as the dawning of a new era.

“It is extremely exciting to have Dream Car Rental join us for this journey,” he said via press release.

“This partnership indicates a significant investment and is a positive sign of the progress that Perth Glory is making at a corporate level.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with a local company which shares a common commitment to building something great for its key stakeholders.

“We look forward to working closely with Dream Car Rental and developing this relationship in the years ahead and very much appreciate the faith the company has shown in the club and its future direction.”

Dream Car Rental executive, Cooper Morrow, echoed Radich’s sentiments, highlighting the impact that the women’s game will have on the growth of the game in the next season.

“We are super-excited to partner with Perth Glory FC for the next three years,” he added via press release.

“We have seen the recent impact football has had on this country thanks to the Matildas and their courageous campaign in the Women’s World Cup and are committed to continuing this growth through our upcoming partnership with Perth Glory FC.

“We will support the players, Members and club in any way we can throughout the partnership and look forward to seeing what can be achieved together.”

As Perth Glory look to grow and challenge above the mid-table next season, a partnership such as this is sure to help. Dream Car Rental has already committed to giving exclusive discounts and packages to club members – something almost certain to be used by fans to make both home and away days.

With more fans filling HBF park thanks to Dream Car Rentals it is certain that both partners are going to benefit greatly from this new deal.

The Melbourne-based anf family-owned business will join the Victory family, uniting two institutions which represent the city’s culture and identity.

A partnership with local roots

As the newest partner of Melbourne Victory, Roasting Warehouse joins forces with a vital part of the city’s sporting landscape.

The club’s Managing Director, Caroline Carnegie, outlined why the partnership bears so much value to both parties.

“We are excited to collaborate with Roasting Warehouse, a community-oriented destination for high-quality coffee, proud of its foundations in Melbourne,” said Carnegie via official media release.

“Football and coffee sit at the epicentre of Melbourne’s culture. The two go hand-in-hand, consistently at the centre of the conversation that stirs Melburnians, which is no different to the conversation sport and Melbourne Victory stir in the State.”

Indeed, this is a partnership which combines the identity, passions and culture of an entire city, therefore giving it the foundations required for long-term, mutual success.

Representing the best of Melbourne

Both Victory and Roasting Warehouse are hugely successful in their respective industries. They are institutions with community-oriented philosphies, who pride themselves on craft and quality.

“We’re incredibly proud to partner with Melbourne Victory, a club that represents the heart, passion, and ambition of Melbourne,” revealed Roasting Warehouse Head of Brand, Alexander Paraskevopoulos.

“As a Melbourne-founded, family-run business, supporting a team that means so much to the local community feels very natural for us.”

Furthermore, through their high-quality blends, Roasting Warehouse will look to prepare Victory’s players and staff for high performances on the pitch as the seasons nears completion.

But this is about far more than just fueling athletes.

This is a partnership which embodies and unites two of Melbourne’s greatest strengths and cultural markers – a connection forged from the city’s very own DNA.

Marie-Louise Eta makes history as new Union Berlin head coach

In an historic appointment, Eta will take over as head coach of Union Berlin until the end of the season.

History in the making

Previously the first female assistant coach in Bundesliga history with Union Berlin, Eta will now take the reigns of the men’s first team on an interim basis.

Currently, the club sit in 11th place in the Bundesliga table, but with only two wins so far in 2026, relegation appears an all-too-real prospect, and one which the club is desperate to avoid.

“Given the points gap in the lower half of the table, our place in the Bundesliga is not yet secure,” said Eta via official media release.

‘I am delighted that the club has entrusted me with this challenging task. One of Union’s strengths has always been, and remains, the ability to pull together in such situations.”

Eta will begin as Union’s new head coach with immediate effect, and will be in the dugout for the club’s matchup against Wolfsburg this weekend.

 

A step into an equal future

Eta’s appointment signals a major step towards a more level playing field in the football landscape.

Furthermore, Eta joins other coaches including Sabrinna Wittmann, Hannah Dingley and Corinne Diacre who, in recent years, have blazed a trail for female coaches to step into the men’s game.

Wittmann currently manages FC Ingolstadt in Germany’s third division, and was the first female head coach in Germany’s top three divisions.

In 2023, Dingley became caretaker manager of Forest Green Rovers, and thus the first woman to lead a men’s professional team in England.

Diacre, now head coach of France’s women’s national team, managed Ligue 2’s Clerment Foot between 2014 and 2017.

 

Final thoughts

The impact therefore, is that Eta’s appointment will show future generations of aspiring female coaches that men’s football is an equally viable and possible pathway as the women’s game.

The time is now to level the playing field.

And while it may be a short-term role, its effect on attitudes towards equality and fair opportunities in the game will hopefully resonate long after the season ends.
