HISTORY Andrew Ferguson was taking work experience at Pacific Access, owners of the White and Yellow Pages Australia. He was stuck on a computer and pretty much given free range for a week. He decided to start up a web site to pass some time. The title was Maxsun, but he needed a slogan, he overheard a few guys talking in the office around him and one man uttered the words "Trust me mate..". So the slogan of Trust A Mate was born. The web site eventually evolved and simply became known as 'Trust A Mate'. The 'Trust A Mate' brand has taken on many faces since its humble beginnings in September 2001. The most notable being the creation of Suburbanball. Suburbanball is an informal sport that has been played in a number of countries around the world. The success of Suburbanball can be credited to the brilliant Suburbanball web site which was provided by 'Trust A Mate'. Trust A Mate.com is now one of the premier sites on the internet, it's brands are known far and wide and it attracts thousands of visitors every year. From humble beginnings it certainly has been a great journey for 'Trust A Mate'. Who knows what the future will hold? Well, according to CEO Andrew Ferguson, the only way that 'Trust A Mate' is going is up! The Trust A Mate Sports Network is now at the heart of Trust A Mate's business. Owning and operating a number of informal sports brands it links itself strongly with the community. It is home to some of the great poker players, legends of the Suburbanball world and pool & snooker sharks. In the future it looks forward to developing relationships with other informal sports as well as taking it's own brands to other places around the world.
