The 2023 competition will officially launch on 3rd April in branches nationwide, across our dedicated social channels and in the April/May edition of NZ Plumber Magazine. 3 further appearances in NZ Plumber (June/July, Oct/Nov and Dec/Jan) will help drive the profile within the industry.
Collateral
An array of collateral will be sent to you to utilise through your own databases and networks. This includes A1 Poster, DL Registration Cards and social media assets.
Launch Events
Over the next couple of months, our branch network will be holding launch events focusing on competition promotion and registration. In addition to this, we have our dedicated Young Plumbers website where competitors can also join the club, enter the competition and view content, event photos and links to our social/sponsor pages.
Social Media
Our dedicated YPC Facebook and Instagram channels play a pivotal role in the promotion of the competition. As our young plumbers are digital natives it’s the best place to keep everyone updated. To enable us to grow the profile of the competition further, we encourage you to utilise your social channels and tag and use our appropriate hashtags.

We have also created some awesome GIFs which are available to use in Instagram Stories by searching ‘YPOTY’.
IMPORTANT – BE MINDFUL OF WHAT IS SHARED ON SOCIAL MEDIA DURING THE COMPETITION.
We welcome your support throughout the competition however we request that you please ensure tests are not profiled in any way before they are completed at the end of the branch and regional stages of the competition.
We collectively need to ensure the competition maintains a high level of integrity and do not want to disadvantage competitors who have completed their events before the overall competition stage is complete.
We will be in contact with additional updates and information as the competition progresses.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us should you have any questions.
