Richmond has announced a two-year partnership with global phone case giant OtterBox.

Known for pioneering the unapologetically overprotective Defender phone case series, OtterBox has joined the Tigers as their official mobile device case partner.

The new partnership will enhance the experience for Richmond members and fans on game-days and through the Club’s official App.

Richmond CEO Brendon Gale said the exciting, new partnership had a digital focus.

“I’d like to welcome OtterBox to Richmond as the Club’s first official mobile device case partner,” Gale said.

“The partnership has a digital focus and is centered around weekly digital content, enhanced match-day experiences and fan giveaways.”

“Technology is always evolving and we look forward to working alongside the global phone case giant."

To celebrate the partnership, 2018 Richmond members will be eligible for discounted prices on OtterBox’s full range of mobile protection cases until the first bounce of Round 1.

Otter Products’ Asia-Pacific Head of Marketing, Sean Murphy, said he looked forward to working with Richmond.

“This is an opportunity for two organizations, who pride themselves on uncompromising defence, to join forces,” Murphy said.

“In 2018 fans are able to connect with the Club more than ever with their mobile phones and we are committed to enhancing that experience. We are very excited to be part of the Tigers first Premiership defence in 37 years.”

“The Tigers’ history of tenacious defending is mirrored by what we believe here at OtterBox, that you should always be able to proceed boldly, whether that’s on or off the field.”
