Sport
Sport has the power to bring whole countries, cities and communities together for moments of excitement and entertainment.
In Australia, sport is an important part of our culture and the Group recognises the need for our support in maintaining the elite standards of our nation's top athletes.
We support the growth of sport in Australia and in particular, the importance of team spirit and health. We encourage excellence in sport at a local, regional and national level. Through our partnerships, we provide young Australians with access to sporting opportunities.
Cricket
Cricket is the soul of Australian summer life. The Group has supported cricket for more than 22 years. Our ongoing association with cricket provides a valuable link between the Commonwealth Bank, our people and our customers.
Cricket Australia
The Commonwealth
Bank is Cricket Australia’s longest standing partner. We are the major sponsor
of the one-day international series in Australia and the Australian one-day
international team.
Our support extends from our national teams right through to the community grassroots of the sport. We have sponsored the Australian women’s team, the Southern Stars for many years and also sponsor the Australian Country Cricket Championships and the national Indigenous cricket competition, the Imparja Cup.
Our sponsorship of cricket enables us to engage with our key stakeholders, our customers and our employees, through one of Australia’s most popular pastimes. We understand that cricket is an integral part of our culture and we are determined to support what’s important to our Australian community.
