Melbourne Knights FC Official Website Behind every
match day.
The businesses on our shirt, around our stadium, and in our community — together with us since 1953.
Cornerstones of
the modern Knights.
Two partnerships that have done more than fund a season. They’ve shaped what Melbourne Knights have become in the modern era — through league changes, board changes, kit changes and committee changes. We honour their commitment by recognising both as Cornerstone Partners of the club.
I&D Group
- Senior Men’s Front of Shirt Partner
One of the longest unbroken partnerships in the club’s modern history. I&D Group have worn the front of the senior men’s shirt for more than a decade — through league moves, committee changes and an entire generation of players. Exceptional, consistent commitment to Melbourne Knights.

A name. A number.
A business behind both.
Player sponsorships are how local businesses, families and supporters get personally involved with the Knights. A name on the senior men’s squad sheet means a business — sometimes several — backing that player’s season.
