Statesman Windows Elevate Partnership

Window of Opportunity: South Adelaide and Statesman Windows Strengthen Partnership.

 

The South Adelaide Football Club is thrilled to announce the extension of its partnership with Statesman Windows, which will continue through the next two seasons.

For the past three years, Statesman Windows has proudly supported South Adelaide’s Junior Program. This partnership holds special significance, with Cohen and Kody—sons of Managing Director Darren Shortridge—actively participating in the Panthers Junior programs, and their daughter Jaidee-Lee joining the Senior Women’s Program in 2025.

South Adelaide’s Partnership Manager, Rachel Kimber, expressed her excitement about this expanded commitment:


"Working with Darren and Kerrie over the past three years as Junior Partners has been an absolute pleasure. As a football-focused family, they are deeply involved with the club, with their three children now playing across the Men's, Women's, and Junior teams."

"I am thrilled to welcome them as Gold Partners, supporting all three grades. Their dedication and contributions to the club are invaluable. From shuttling their kids between activities throughout the week to helping out at the BBQ on Junior Game Days, Darren and Kerrie are true pillars of our community."

Statesman Windows Managing Director, Darren Shortridge is excited to elevate their connection with the Panthers. 

"As a proud South Australian family owned and operated company both myself and Kerrie are excited to partner with South Adelaide and support local sport in our community." Said Shortridge

"Being a passionate football family, we are pleased to be part of the Panthers, aligning ourselves with like a minded, family-oriented organisation with strong community values such as ourselves."
