The Sydney Swans are thrilled to be teaming up with Australian nutrition brand PILLAR Performance, who will officially become the Sports Nutrition Partner of the Swans’ AFL and AFLW teams.

Founded by former professional rugby union player Damien Fitzpatrick, the PILLAR Performance product line includes Grass Fed WPI Protein, Creatine, Triple Magnesium, Ultra Immune C and Collagen supplements. The products are all third party tested, Informed Sport certified and approved by WADA for athlete use.

As part of the new partnership, the PILLAR Performance team will work with the club’s dieticians and high-performance team to help improve athlete performance with their off-field micro-nutrition and recovery products.

PILLAR Performance branding will also be prominent across the Club’s change room chairs on gamedays and in the PILLAR Nutrition Pod (PNP) station at Sydney Swans HQ players kitchen.

Sydney Swans CEO Matthew Pavlich said the partnership was a natural fit. 

“We are thrilled to partner with a trusted Australian brand in PILLAR Performance, whose products our team have been using for a number of years,” Pavlich said. 

“Our high-performance team will work with the team of experts at PILLAR Performance to deliver some great sports nutrition outcomes for our players, which is really important for our future on-field success.” 

PILLAR Performance Founder and CEO, Damien Fitzpatrick, said the partnership reflects a shared commitment to high performance and long-term athlete health.

“At PILLAR, we believe health and performance are fundamentally interconnected — you can’t have one without the other,” Fitzpatrick said.

“The Swans have a long-standing reputation for excellence, professionalism, and mastering the fundamentals. That shared commitment to doing the basics exceptionally well is what makes this partnership so meaningful.”

“To work alongside the Swans’ high-performance and nutrition teams, supporting both the AFL and AFLW programs through our performance health range and access to our sport science ecosystem, is something we’re incredibly proud of. Our role is to help athletes arrive at the start line in optimal condition, on and off the field”
