Point S, the world’s leading independent tyre dealer and car maintenance network, has signed a sponsorship contract with the International Handball Federation (IHF) to officially sponsor the 2023 Women’s World Handball Championship.
The tournament will see 32 of the best women’s national handball teams from all over the world compete to be crowned the best on the planet. Teams from Europe, Africa, North America, Central America, South America, and Asia will travel to venues in Herning, Frederikshavn, Stavanger, Trondheim, Helsingborg, and Gothernburg to participate in the event, which takes place from 29th November to 17th December.
The partnership continues Point S’s longstanding association with elite women’s handball. In 2019, the company proudly sponsored the 2019 IHF Women’s Handball World Championship in Kumamoto, Japan, while 2022 saw the business sponsor the 2022 European Handball Federation’s (EHF’s) Women’s Handball Championship.
Commenting on the partnership, Point S International CEO, Fabien Bouquet, said: “The sporting values of commitment and team spirit are ingrained in our network of over 6,100 Point S centres all over the world. These values are central to our ambition to provide customers with a first-class service, and I am delighted that we are promoting these ideals and practices in our sponsorship of the 26th IHF Women’s World Championship. The global Point S family wishes everyone from the participating countries the best of luck for the championship.”
Muriel Clarke, Point S International Brand and Licences Manager, said: “We are immensely proud to continue our association with elite handball. The teamwork, dedication and expertise required at this level of sport is something we strive to emulate across our global business, and we cannot wait for the tournament to begin.”
