Earlier this week Treysti and EIK signed a 3-year sponsorship agreement covering 2008-2010. Under the agreement, EIK will be Treysti’s main sponsor for the next three years.
Part of the agreement is a bonus scheme. This means that the more medals Treysti’s athletes win at the Faroese Championships and other competitions organised by FÍF, the more Treysti will receive. Another part of the agreement means that Treysti, together with EIK in Klaksvík, will organise a new recurring running race in Klaksvík.
Jonhard Larsen and Eyðun Mørkøre are pleased with the agreement
– We at Treysti are very pleased with the agreement, especially now that we are moving into the brand-new badminton hall, where we will have club rooms. The agreement will make it easier to run the club, and we can put more focus on the sporting side instead of having to think too much about the financial side, which of course still has to be in order, says Jonhard Larsen, chair of Treysti.
– I also think the bonus agreement is exciting, because it is completely new for us, and at the same time it encourages us to win medals and to turn out in good numbers for FÍF’s competitions, says a very satisfied Jonhard Larsen.
– We at EIK are also pleased with the agreement with Treysti, which we regard as an established and well-known running club with good results to show for both children and adults. I have noticed the “yellow ones” from Treysti many times at races, and so we see this agreement as a good opportunity to raise our profile. The fact that the club has also done so well in recent years says quite a lot about the will to win in this club, and that kind of winning attitude is something we are glad to support, says Eyðun Mørkøre, branch manager at EIK in Klaksvík.
– Exercise is also very “in” at the moment, so we hope to see lots of runners when Treysti, together with us, organises a running race in Klaksvík, says Eyðun Mørkøre.
