SUMMARY
The Hyundai A-League was about to enter their 12th season. But this couldn't be just a regular season launch. We needed a complete change in audience and approach. By discovering how Football was upending the traditional sporting legacy we were able to ensure Season 2016/17 launched with incredible success. It generated over $10 million in earned media, and 238 million media impressions, but most importantly saw an increase in over 150,000 new fans.
