As an ISP who operates across Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, we are a champion for diversity and inclusion and are thrilled to support both the men’s and women’s teams. We hope to bring the fans closer to the football action, as we line up a slew of marketing activities and unique experiences for football fans country-wide,” he added.
