PUMA has announced a new partnership with the Scottish Professional Football League and the Scottish Women’s Premier League, providing the official match ball for both leagues starting in the 2023/24 season.
The multi-year partnership sees the SPWL launch its first bespoke match ball, as well as PUMA’s first match ball for a women’s football league.
SWPL Managing Director Fiona McIntyre said: “We are absolutely delighted, and hugely excited, to partner with PUMA, a brand recognised across the world. Their values include being brave and confident which align perfectly with our own ambitions at the SWPL.
“I am delighted that we will have our own bespoke match-ball for the first time ever – it looks incredible and is another important milestone for the women’s game as we strive to professionalise the SWPL and engage new audiences.”
The new Orbita ball comes in four unique colourways inspired by the SPFL and SWPL logos. The ball will make its debut at the start of the 2023/24 Viaplay Cup, getting its first taste of action in the group stage this summer. The bespoke SWPL Orbita will officially debut at the start of the SWPL and SWPL 2 seasons on 13th August.
