Triathlon Australia partners with Headsweats – “world leader in performance headwear.”
Triathlon Australia, January 28, 2015: Leading sports headwear brand Headsweats has become the official headwear partner for Triathlon in Australia. The partnership with Triathlon Australia and the State and Territory Associations will provide headwear for Technical Officials, Coaches, athletes and staff, ensuring comfort and sun protection while they are out in the field.
Headsweats was founded in 1998 by keen cyclist Alan Romick who has expanded the brand to over 17 different products available in over 140 different colours and styles.
Today the Headsweats line includes washable, airlight and supremely wicking hats that now dominate the triathlon, rowing, and adventure racing worlds.
The success and a spirit of innovation at Headsweats, along with unsurpassed customer service, have helped to establish Headsweats as the front-runner and first choice for many triathletes around the world.
Triathlon Australia CEO, Anne Gripper said: “I am really pleased to be able to provide our members and key stakeholder groups with this fantastic product.
“Our technical officials are the unsung heroes of our sport, often spending hours out in the sun doing their job.
“To be able to provide them with good quality Headsweats products will hopefully make their job that little bit easier.
“We always look for partners who care about the sport and our members, so we are pleased that this partnership will extend to offer discounted prices to our membership base. We look forward to working with Headsweats to deliver more great initiatives over the coming years.”
Age group athletes who are selected to represent Australia at World Championship campaigns will be able to purchase specially designed headwear at ‘team’ rates.
In addition to this, wider benefit of 20 percent discount on Headsweats products will be available to all Triathlon Australia members through their Australian distributor - Everest Sports – via everestsports.com.au.
Everest Sports/Headsweats Australia National Sales Manager, Marthijs Heuperman said: “Triathlon is a sport that evokes passion and possibility. In the forming of this relationship with TA we strive to bring both these elements to the organisation and their members through both the Headsweats products and our service in delivery.
“We are excited to be able to bring Headsweats and Triathlon Australia together in such a positive partnership for both its members and key stakeholder groups.”
Triathlon Australia is the official National Sporting Organisation responsible for the management and delivery of the sports of triathlon, duathlon, aquathlon and multisport within Australia.
