Wilson Parks & Recreation Department KICKS OFF SEASON WITH DONATION AND EQUIPMENT FROM UNIROYAL® TIRE Colony Tire AND White's Tire Service
Wilson, N.C. — (August 23, 2010) — With the 10th anniversary under its belt, the Uniroyal® Soccer Program is continuing to support local soccer across the nation. Starting September 10, players of Wilson Parks & Recreation Department will receive certificates that can be redeemed for a free soccer ball at Colony Tire and White's Tire Service, while supplies last. After the 30-day program period, Wilson Parks & Recreation Department will receive $2 for every Uniroyal® tire sold to the general public on behalf of Uniroyal® Tire, Colony Tire and White's Tire Service.
Since the program’s inception in 2000, the Uniroyal Soccer Program has provided nearly $13 million in funds and equipment in excess of one million soccer balls, to more than 3,000 youth soccer programs across the U.S. and Canada. As a continuation of the 10th anniversary, Uniroyal® Tire will be giving away a soccer ball every day in 2010. For more information, please visit the website at www.UniroyalTires.com.
“Giving back to our local community in such a unique way is phenomenal,” said the store manager of Colony Tire and White's Tire Service. “We look forward to connecting with players and parents from Wilson Parks & Recreation Department when they come in for their free soccer ball.”
“We are thankful we can provide such a distinct program for our dealers to be able to get involved in their communities,” said Ashley Ramos, Uniroyal® Tire communications manager. “Soccer leagues depend on donations from partners like Colony Tire and White's Tire Service and we are proud to facilitate that partnership.”
To continue Uniroyal’s involvement in the soccer community, soccer fans will have the opportunity to become the official designer of the 2011 soccer ball in the Uniroyal Soccer Ball Design Challenge. The grand prize includes a $1,000 check, a set of Uniroyal® tires, a $500 car service gift certificate, 50 soccer balls featuring the winner’s design, an Apple® iPadTM and more. Interested participants should visit www.UniroyalTires.com/soccerballdesignchallenge beginning July 1 for details.
