BrightRock and the DHL Stormers celebrate 10 seasons together as new URC season kicks off with blockbuster clash
Posted on 8 Oct, 25 by BrightRock
Johannesburg, September 2025 – As the DHL Stormers kick off their Vodacom United Rugby Championship (URC) campaign and settle into the first few matches of the new season, needs-matched life insurer BrightRock celebrates its 10th season as a proud partner of the Cape side.
The significant milestone, celebrated under the banner “10 seasons. One change-loving journey”, makes BrightRock one of the DHL Stormers’ longest-standing partners. Together they have built a partnership shared on the understanding that life, much like a game of rugby, is dynamic and full of unexpected turns.
Over the past decade, the partnership has weathered some of the team’s biggest “game-changing moments”: the Stormers’ move from Newlands to DHL Stadium, the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic, the team’s historic United Rugby Championship win, and a brand-new jersey and identity, to name a few. BrightRock’s own journey in this time has mirrored many of these change moments, including the pivot required in 2020 to continue to deliver needs-matched change to its clients in an entirely new work-from-home world.
“As a business that’s built on the belief that in all change lies opportunity, rugby has been the perfect metaphor for us to bring our #LoveChange message to life,” says Suzanne Stevens, CEO of BrightRock. “The DHL Stormers are a team that embodies this change-fit, resilient philosophy, and it’s been a privilege to share this decade-long journey with them and their incredible supporters.”
The DHL Stormers reflect on the past decade and share their eagerness for moments that lie ahead on the field:
“This season promises to be exciting and challenging, and we’re ready to face every moment head-on. With the support of BrightRock alongside us, we’re confident in our ability to make the most of every opportunity of the game and deliver performances that our fans can be proud of,” says Salmaan Moerat, Captain of the DHL Stormers.
As the DHL Stormers tackle another exciting URC season, the message is clear: in life and on the field, it’s possible to become more adept at playing the game and loving change.
