Hutchies' Townsville team’s long-standing relationship with the North Queensland Cowboys rugby league football club continues with Coen Hess (prop forward) being named this year as Hutchies’ player ambassador.

The formal relationship between Hutchies and the Cowboys began in 2021, when Hutchies completed construction of the Cowboys’ community, training and high performance centre.

On completion of the project, Hutchies and Cowboys signed a 10-year naming rights sponsorship agreement in which Hutchies had the naming rights to The Hutchinson Builders Centre of Excellence.

Hutchies continues to carry out work at the centre, having constructed level two tenancies, multiple tenancy fit-outs, including a physio and surgery office, and is currently constructing a fit-out for Queensland X-ray.

Hutchies’ relationship with the Cowboys began a decade ago when the Townsville team did work at the Cowboys’ old stadium and headquarters. Since then, Hutchies has employed emerging Cowboys players as apprentice carpenters and labourers. 

In 2018, Hutchies built the NRL Cowboys House Girls Campus which is an accommodation and education facility aimed at housing remote community Indigenous girls from across the state and continues to support the facility as a sponsor.
