Club officials said Ron Doyle Motors "has been a wonderful supporter of our club since 2015 when they first became our major sponsor via Isuzu Ute Local Sports Sponsorship Fund".

"We are proud to sponsor the Eden Killer Whales Soccer Club again. They are a well run club and they provide a much needed healthy outdoor activity for our local kids," Ron Doyle proprietor Troy Altmann said.

"We love supporting our community and the Killer Whales has always been a wonderful community connection for us."

This years sponsorship is the biggest Isuzu and Ron Doyle Motors have ever contributed to the Eden Killer Whales.

Officials said this was a reflection of the club's successful partnership in previous years and shows steadfast support behind the Killer Whales' commitment to relaunching football following the suspension of both junior and senior competitions in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Eden Killer Whales secretary Adam Donaldson said the sponsorship funding will go primarily towards funding training for coaches and referees, improvements to facilities and new training equipment. Best of all it helps the club keep registration fees low so as to be more accessible and inclusive to all.

"We are blessed to have such a strong relationship with Ron Doyle Motors and Isuzu Ute," Mr Donaldson said.

"Their sponsorship has had a positive ripple effect through our club for many years now. Our committee continues to work hard to make the most of the opportunities their sponsorship give us. There are more great things to come from it this season."

The Killer Whales Season kicks off on May 2nd with an away round at Mallacoota. Registrations are still open for all age groups and interested players are urged to contact the club via the links on www.edenkillerwhales.com.
