“Conker’s well-planned and highly creative PR campaign played a vital part in smashing the Vitality Netball World Cup’s 100,000 ticket sales threshold. The results speak for themselves with coverage across national, regional and niche media platforms. Thanks to the Vitality Netball World Cup 2019 PR campaign, netball took centre stage and has never been featured so prominently in the national media.

 

“Conker’s energy, enthusiasm and application really impressed the team and their milestone- driven events were planned with military precision. The Conker approach helped us to succeed in celebrating our sport, amplifying the four key pillars of the campaign and winning the hearts and minds of a whole new generation of netball fans.”
