Fosters Renews League Sponsorships

Signing on the dotted line: Mr. Dax Foster, Sales and Marketing Director of Foster Brothers Limited signs the five-year sponsorship contract on behalf of the Foster Group, which has partnered with local football. CIFA President Jeffrey Webb looks on.

The Cayman Islands Football Association’s (CIFA) senior men’s and women’s leagues kick off this weekend, with 11 teams competing for the 2002/2003 season. Once again, the Foster Group of Companies has thrown its support behind football, with its sponsorship of the men’s senior national league. In fact, Fosters has extended its sponsorship for another five years, with a total commitment of $75,000.00

Fosters has sponsored the league at various levels for the past 10 years.

CIFA President, Jeffrey Webb and Foster Brothers’ Sales and Marketing Director, Dax Foster signed the contract for sponsorship at a recent press conference. “It’s exciting to see all the positive changes happening in football, with coach Marcio Maximo, young players in the national team, and the new disciplinary measures that are been introduced,” Dax Foster noted. “ We are happy to contribute to football, and to help young people in the community through sports,” he added.

Mr. Webb said that Fosters has always been supportive of football, and sets a good example of what good corporate citizenship is about. “We are looking forward to an exciting season. The teams have been training hard and are well prepared,” Mr. Webb said.
He noted that starting this season, CIFA has introduced new registration and transfer guidelines and doping control measures to ensure that players lead a drug-free life.
