NIVEA Sun supports Kicksand beach football tournament


NIVEA Sun, the leading sun care skin protection, has signed up as major sponsor of the 2011 Kicksand
Beach Football tournament which will soon move into its southern swing in the finest resorts in Boracay
and Davao.
“We are happy to partner with NIVEA Sun for the Kicksand Beach Football series. NIVEA’s line of
products suit well with beach sports,” Beach Football Association of the Philippines (BFAP) president
Mike Athab said.
NIVEA Sun signed up for the two tournaments in Boracay and Davao through Kicksand’s marketing
group F1 Event Solutions, Inc.
Jamie Sanico, brand manager of NIVEA Sun, said NIVEA is committed to outdoor sports events like beach
football and is happy that the brand will be associated with Kicksand.
La Isla Bonita Resort will be hosting the Visayas leg in scenic Boracay on May 28-29 while Bluejaz Resort
and Waterpark in Samal Island, Davao will be the venue of the Mindanao leg on June 11-12.
The tournament, organized by the BFAP and supported by the Philippine Sports Commission and the
Philippine Football Federation, has expanded to a three-leg series covering all three islands of the
country this year.
The tournament is open to all football clubs and will be part of a selection process for the men’s and
women’s national beach football team. The Boracay leg will be the second leg of a trilogy that started in
Subic last April 16-17 with Manila FC winning the men’s title and Libertas FC taking the women’s crown.
The final leg in Mindanao will be staged on June 11-12 at the scenic Bluejaz Resort and Waterpark in
Samal Island.
