The Euro 1-Wall Tour and Kill Shot Handball are delighted to today announce a new partnership which will see Kill Shot Handball become the official glove of the Euro 1-Wall Tour.
The Euro 1-Wall Tour has been in operation since 2011 and oversees the running of a circuit of tournaments each year around Europe in venues such as Spain, England, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Basque Country, Wales and Ireland as well as growing the game through marketing and youth development.
The new season served off with the inaugural Welsh Open in Nelson, Wales and will move on to events around Europe in the coming months.
Kill Shot Handball is one of the fastest-growing apparel suppliers for the sport of handball, focusing on high-quality gloves and playing attire.
The new partnership will see Kill Shot sponsor a selection of the elite male and female players on tour including European no.1s Luke Thomson and Harmke Siegersma and will be officially launched at the Valencia tour stop on September 30-October 1 next.
Kill Shot gloves are currently worn by many of the leading players in Ireland including Conor McElduff and rising star Fiachra Ó Dhúill.
Kill Shot will be on site at the European Tour events this season and as well as sponsoring 10 of the elite players, will also sponsor prizes for some grades and focus on pre and post-event publicity.
Euro 1-Wall CEO Dan Grant said: “We are overjoyed to be working with the Kill Shot Handball team. We love the way these guys are taking the game on, making it cooler for young players with specific 1-wall gloves and supporting the growth of the sport throughout the whole of Europe.”
Paul Fitzpatrick of Kill Shot Handball said: “We are absolutely delighted to be associated with the Euro 1-Wall Tour and can’t wait to attend the opening event in Valencia.
“The development of the sport in Europe has been one of the most positive innovations in handball in recent decades. We wish the organisers and participating players every success this season and look forward to working together to help grow our brilliant game.
“Kill Shot has sponsored numerous clubs and tournaments including the Antrim team who attended a Euro event last year and the recent Breacach and Loughmacrory wallball tournaments and we feel it is very important to give something back to the handball community who have supported us since our launch.
“It is a great honour to be the official glove of the Euro 1-Wall Tour. We believe it will strengthen both of our brands and we hope the partnership goes from strength to strength.”
