VANCOUVER, BC – May 16th, 2025 – The Vancouver Bandits and Next Day Access Vancouver: North Shore & Fraser Valley are proud to announce a new partnership that focuses on community investment and support for youth development. As part of the new agreement, Next Day Access Vancouver: North Shore & Fraser Valley will serve as a supporting partner of the Community Champion program, which provides tickets to not-for-profit and charitable organizations in the Lower Mainland, programs like Big Brothers Big Sisters and Canucks Autism Network.

“At Next Day Access, we are both proud and excited to partner with the Vancouver Bandits. With a passion for helping others and providing accessibility to those in need, it brings us great pleasure to work with the bandits to provide tickets to kids across our community,“ said Hao Isley, co-owner of Next Day Access Vancouver: North Shore & Fraser Valley. “This partnership is a great way to continue living our core value of being responsible members of our communities and serving others.”

Next Day Access will also sponsor an in-game activation that features an upgrade from the bowl seating in the Courtside Club for four fans at each Vancouver Bandits regular season home game during the 2025 Canadian Elite Basketball League season. “Next Day Access has been an incredible partner to the team so far, and we’re thrilled to partner on our Community Champion program, which truly aligns with their values,” said Dylan Kular, President of the Vancouver Bandits. “Their support across the Lower Mainland helps us grow the game of basketball by bringing youth to Bandits games who may otherwise not be able to go without the support of Next Day Access.”
