Thule has welcomed the Scottish Canoe Association to its Partners in Sports sponsorship program in a move designed to literally ‘transport’ the SCA to the Beijing Olympics and beyond.
The Scottish Canoe Association governs canoeing in Scotland and three of its members have recently been selected for GB Olympic team. Since the 2004 Athens Olympics, Scottish athletes have won 1 Olympic, 5 world championship, 6 world cup and 4 European championship medals.
The SCA are aiming for great success in Beijing, the European Championships, British Team selection races and National Championship events this year– and will be using Thule roof carriers, luggage systems and water-sports equipment holders to get all their kit to events.
Peter Barker, UK General Manager of Thule comments: “We are extremely excited to welcome the SCA to our Thule Partners in Sport program. Thule’s support allows the SCA to focus valuable funds and energy on achieving great successes, without having to worry about how to get their equipment to competitions! We look forward to following their triumphs in 2008.”
