Slazenger announced their new agreement with Scottish Hockey, which will see them as an Official Sponsorship Partner until September 2011. The deal will see the brand supporting Junior Scottish players in their build up to the U18 Europeans and the U16 Four Nations Tournaments.
Slazenger’s support through the sponsorship will provide funds to develop Scotland’s youth programmes, and give additional support to selected players.
Under the terms of the agreement, Scottish Hockey will also participate in the Team Slazenger programme which aims to help talented junior players by providing them with the highest quality sticks and equipment.
Slazenger’s funding for year one has been matched by sportsmatch through sportscotland, with additional support going to Scottish Hockey’s long term player development (LTPD) targets. Targets include; development of a national U16 league, organising additional competitions for schools or education and training for staff, volunteers and partners.
Slazenger’s Sponsorship Executive, Chloe Passant commented on the deal: “We are delighted to enter in to partnership with Scottish Hockey. The deal demonstrates the Slazenger commitment to offer market leading hockey equipment to players of all levels, and to continue our support of the development of junior hockey. We are well placed to do this from our position at the forefront of the hockey brands in the marketplace.”
Ben Glencross, Development Manager for Scottish Hockey said: “There’s no doubt Slazenger and sportsmatch support will make a huge difference to our resources and the development of youth hockey in Scotland.”
