Point S sponsors women’s handball

Independent tyre dealer and car maintenance network Point S has signed a sponsorship contract with the European Handball Federation (EHF) to officially sponsor the 2022 European Women’s Handball Championship.

The tournament will see Europe’s top 16 women’s national handball teams compete to be the best on the continent. Teams from Croatia, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Montenegro, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland will travel to the cities of Ljubljana, Celje, Skopje, and Podgorica to participate in the event, which takes place from 4 to 20 November.

The partnership continues Point S’s commitment to sponsoring elite international sporting competitions. In 2019, the company proudly sponsored the 2019 IHF Women’s Handball World Championship in Kumamoto, Japan.

Commenting on the partnership, Point S International CEO, Fabien Bouquet, said: “We are delighted to be part of the Women’s EHF Euro 2022, and are proud to count the Point S brand among the official sponsors of the 15th edition of this prestigious competition.

“I have always admired the values that are demonstrated in sport, and these are often also seen in the world of business. On the court, handball requires an extremely high level of commitment, as well as a strong team spirit. These principles are deeply rooted in our network of 5,900 Point S centres around the world, as they strive to provide a first-class service to our customers. 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: “The teamwork, dedication and expertise displayed by those that participate in handball at any level are values that we as a group share, and it was these values that drew us to this brilliant sport. For this reason, we are enormously proud to continue our association with handball.”
