NWSL Atlanta Expansion Team Announces 7-Year Front-of-Kit Sponsorship Deal with Georgia-Based Aflac
Aflac's seven-year deal includes donations to the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorder Center and is the National Women’s Soccer League’s most lucrative front-of-kit sponsorship.
- On Wednesday, Aflac signed a seven-year front-of-kit sponsorship placing its Georgia-based name on the Atlanta NWSL team shirts.
- Virgil Miller said the sponsorship was a natural fit because Aflac U.S. is Georgia-based and '80% of healthcare decisions are made by women'.
- Attendance will be capped at approximately 28,000, and Arthur Blank, owner of the Atlanta expansion team, is investing in training site development in the city.
- The sponsorship includes a charitable donation, with part of Aflac U.S.'s contribution going to the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorder Center at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, while financial terms were not released.
- Atlanta will debut in 2028 as the NWSL's 17th team following Boston and Denver, and Virgil Miller said the league has seen four consecutive years of viewership growth.
