Set to start playing in the NRL this season, the Redcliffe has announced that it has joined up with technology platform OK2PLAY? as an additional founding partner.

The deal runs for three years and will see OK2PLAY? receive branding on the front of the players’ shorts.

With the Club’s mission being to create a lasting positive impact in the broader community by becoming successful, inclusive and respected, the Dolphins are proud for OK2PLAY? to be joining them, as OK2PLAY? looks to change the existing landscape by normalising the conversation around mental health and increasing the speed to access appropriate support.

Both OK2PLAY? and the Dolphins are eager to extend from their joint base of community and family to assist each other in their endeavours over the coming years.

As they enter the NRL, Dolphins Chief Executive, Terry Reader stated “innovation is important in any business - including the NRL - so being in partnership with the OK2PLAY? player protection support solution was appealing because like the Dolphins, this system is making a difference in local communities.

“We welcome OK2PLAY? as a partner of the Dolphins and will be assisting them in promoting the changes they are making."

OK2PLAY? Chief Executive, Bryan Te Wani, said the platform was keen to support a club with a high level of integrity and commitment to staff, players and the community.

He added "it takes a lot to change both industry and community mindset, but with already 50 venues utilising OK2PLAY? we are dedicated to pursuing this change."
