The Byron Bay Football Club is thrilled to announce a partnership with Grill’d

The Byron Bay Football Club is thrilled to announce a partnership with Grill’d, Australia’s favourite home-grown burger brand. Grill’d will be the naming rights partner of the Grill’d Byron Bay FC Community Clubhouse.

Since establishing their first Melbourne restaurant in 2004, Grill’d has been providing guests with delicious, locally sourced and 100% natural burgers. Byron Bay FC club members can enjoy a meal and connect with Grill’d staff at the local Byron Grill’d location on Jonson St. 

 Grill'd has a strong commitment to supporting athletes and sporting teams via long term partnerships with the Australian Institute of Sport, the NRL’s Melbourne Storm and the Victorian Amatuer Football Associtation.  

 Clinton Bown, Vice President, Byron Bay FC says: 

"Grill'd Healthy Burgers are a welcome addition to our town, and our community football club. Grill'd gets what it means to think local, to have a environmental and sustainable approach to business, and to support the communities they are in. “

Byron Bay FC has over 720 registered players and has been providing a meeting place for the Byron Bay community for 60 years. But we've outgrown our facilities over that time - and we are nearing the completion of a new Clubhouse, which will provide a new meeting place - a place to develop our children as both footballers and young people, a place where we can share stories, celebrate wins and invite visitors to enjoy our hospitality. Grill'd has come on board to help realise that dream and we can’t be more excited.

 Simon Crowe, Co-founder and Managing Director, Grill’d says: "Local communities have always been at the heart of what we do at Grill'd and we're proud that we've been able to support so many local groups over the years, including sports teams. Being able to take that further with the the Byron Bay FC through this partnership is such a fantastic opportunity. I was fortunate to attend our first Byron opening in December last year, our first ever Gamechanger burger restaurant, and was blown away by the community spirit ”
