We are always delighted when we hear that a company outside of the water sport industry is picking up a sponsor ship of a SUP Race. This is exactly the news we just received regarding the Namur City SUP Race that marks the 4th stopp of the EURO TOUR. As is looks like athletes have now the opportunity to earn more price money on behalf of Deloitte. Deloitte is an international audit, consulting and tax advisory company.
These are the news we just received from the EURO TOUR:
As a leading consulting firm in Belgium and globally, #Deloitte has a profound passion for sports. With a strong commitment to supporting various sports initiatives, including being the main sponsor of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, where 19 of its employees worldwide are participating as Olympic athletes, it is honored to contribute once again to the sports community in Belgium.
With this sponsorship, #Deloitte reaffirms its commitment to promoting water sports in the Walloon Region within the European organization of EuroTour.
The Namur City Race has a rich history in SUP Racing as it is probably the one race that has been on the EURO TOUR the longest and dates back to 2012. Back then it was called Surf in the City Race and the podium as some pretty legendary names: Check out our first record of Namur City Race from 2012.
Dating forward to last year. The defenders are Donato Freens and Petronella van Malsen. With some extra cash in the pot this race could shape up to be a bigger one.
