Peel Thunder Football Club is proud to announce the renewal of its partnership with The Lane Group, reaffirming a long-standing relationship built on shared values of community, growth, and sporting excellence.

This renewed agreement sees The Lane Group continue as our major partner and naming rights sponsor of our home ground, as well as platinum partner of both our men’s and women’s football programs, through the support of their Ford franchise, Lane Ford. Their ongoing commitment plays a crucial role in strengthening the foundation for our club’s continued success both on and off the field.

Over the years, our partnership with The Lane Group has flourished, and this extension further solidifies the bond between us. Their support provides essential resources that enable us to deliver impactful development programs, support community initiatives, and invest in vital facility enhancements—benefitting not only our players and supporters, but the broader Peel region.

 “We are proud to announce the extension of our partnership with Peel Thunder,” said Colin Lane, CEO at The Lane Group. “As a company deeply invested in the local community, we recognise the importance of grassroots football and the positive impact it has on players, families, and supporters. Peel Thunder is a fantastic club with a rich history, and we are excited to be part of its future success.”

Their support is invaluable in helping us develop talent, grow the game, and foster a strong community spirit. We look forward to continuing this journey together.”
