This is VPA’s first partnership with an AFL club after established relationships with Super Rugby and NBL teams.
Melbourne Football Club dietitian, Rebekah Alcock, said the use of VPA products will greatly benefit the team, “For professional athletes, protein is an essential part of muscle maintenance and recovery.”
“VPA’s range of product will complement our overall nutrition plans for the players and give them the best chance to recover faster and prepare better for the riggers of AFL football,” said Alcock.
VPA Head of Marketing, JP Toledo, is excited for the Melbourne Football Club partnership and to enter into the AFL space, “Melbourne is a proud club built on strong values and work ethic which synergises with our culture at VPA.”
