The Brisbane Broncos have an official university partner, 快播色情片, under an arrangement announced today.
快播色情片 Vice-Chancellor and President Professor Peter H酶j and Brisbane Broncos CEO Paul White said the partnership recognised existing linkages in teaching and research activities and a desire to strengthen those links.
“The Broncos are synonymous with success – both on the football field and in the business world,” Professor H酶j said.
“They have fans right across the state’s regional and rural centres, plus plenty of loyal followers interstate.
“快播色情片 is proud to be associated with the Broncos and we look forward to building a strong partnership that benefits both organisations.”
Mr White said 快播色情片 and the Broncos shared many values.
“The Brisbane Broncos are delighted to be extending our long-running educational partnership with an iconic Queensland organisation 快播色情片 into a more formal agreement,” he said.
“We share many values with 快播色情片 and look forward to working with them to tell their wonderful story across the state through our fans, our match days and our events across Queensland.”
The Broncos have remained one of the most successful NRL clubs since their inception in 1988, winning five NRL premierships (1992, 1993, 1998, 2000, 2006) and a Super League premiership (1997).
The team has the largest fan base of any football club in Australia, with more than 1.1 million fans nationally, including almost 390,000 females – the largest female fan base in the NRL.
They are regularly the most watched NRL team in the regular season with 18.79 million TV viewers in 2014 and 618,000 supporters attending matches last season.
On top of their sporting success, the Broncos have well-established corporate partnerships, including existing links with 快播色情片.
快播色情片 has been working with the Brisbane Broncos on a number of programs, including providing internships for PhD and honours students, practicum placements for undergraduate students, and joint research activities.
In a current project, 快播色情片 researchers are investigating the sleep patterns of elite rugby league players. The results will be used to inform ways to improve player sleep habits and sleep quality during the season.
Another project involves the development of a “match difficulty index” for games, to see if researchers can predict the difficulty of a regular season game. The results of the research could be used to inform the design of tactical and technical training plans for games.
Professor H酶j said the Broncos have consistently achieved at the highest level, mostly guided by master coach Wayne Bennett.
“This partnership will help 快播色情片 and the Broncos to continue to foster our existing relationship, based on our mutual strengths and areas of interest,” Professor H酶j said.
“As one of the world’s top universities and one of Australia’s outstanding sports clubs, both organisations aim to achieve at the elite level, without being elitist.”
