PKF is continuing its partnership with the Newcastle Knights, this year placing a strong focus on supporting newly appointed NRL Head Coach Justin Holbrook as he begins a new chapter with the club.

Justin brings more than two decades of coaching experience to the role and returns to Newcastle as a former Knights player.

Managing Director of PKF Sydney & Newcastle, Bob Bell said the business is proud to stand behind the club at a time of renewed energy and optimism.

“Our relationship with the Newcastle Knights has always been grounded in a shared passion for the Newcastle and Hunter community,” Bob said.

“We are proud to stand alongside a coach and club that embodies the values we hold deeply – teamwork, resilience, and genuine community impact.”

Beginning the season on one of the biggest stages in world sport, the Newcastle Knights take Rugby League back to Las Vegas at the end of this week.

For the Knights, Vegas is the launchpad for the 2026 NRL season. For PKF, Bob said it is an opportunity to stand proudly alongside the team as a committed partner, reinforcing their support for the Knights wherever the road leads.

PKF’s sponsorship of the club includes collaborating on community engagement and outreach programs; celebrations of local stories; player and coaching initiatives; and game-day experiences.

As the Knight’s Official Financial Services Partner, Bob said the business is looking forward to supporting the momentum of the team and Newcastle community.

The Newcastle Knights face North Queensland Cowboys on 28 February at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The game will kick-off the 2026 NRL season.
