Hawks on the road to success with City Motors Group

The Hawks are proud to welcome City Motors Group (CMG) as the Club’s ‘Official Automotive Partner’ for Season 2020/21.

A recently acquired part of the Wakeling Automotive Group, City Motors Group comprises Wollongong City Motors (Hyundai and Honda), Shellharbour City Motors (Hyundai and Honda) and Mercedes Benz Wollongong. 

Managing Director, Scott Wakeling, said the opportunity to partner with the Hawks was too good to pass up. 

“We’re super excited to be a part of one of the Illawarra’s favourite clubs, as part of the Wakeling Automotive ethos, we always try and align our business with our local community ensuring we are as embedded as we can be with our valued customers, their dreams and aspirations.”

We’re confident the club can improve on its past results and once again become a force to be reckoned with, and in doing so, take the sporting fans of the Illawarra on another great journey.”

Hawks Co-Owner & President Dorry Kordahi said: “We are delighted to welcome Wakeling Automotive to the Hawks partnership group and appreciate the passion they have already shown for the club.”

It is wonderful to have partners who are as invested in the Illawarra community as we are, and we look forward to sharing success with them, both on and off the court.”

Young gun Sam Froling will be the official ‘Player Partner’ representing the sponsorship to the Hawks broader business and community network.

“We’re especially excited to partner with Sam Froling and can see a very bright future with him as one of our more iconic players,” Mr Wakeling said.

“Wollongong City Motors held an existing relationship with the Illawarra Hawks decades ago, and we’re keen to evolve that history”.

The Hawks continue to build a strong and diverse partnership network in the lead in to Season 2020/21, setting the club a solid platform for commercial sustainability.
