"We signed an agreement with Bowen and Bowen - a sponsorship agreement to sponsor our national and regional tournaments that are held for 5 disciplines throughout the school year. National Secondary School Association has 4 regions in north, south, central and west and so therefore all these regions, the host school as well the regional executive will be able to benefit from this agreement."
"The agreement basically is lends to our beverages; all our drinks are fully sponsored by Bowen and Bowen in terms of what we give to the students and in terms of what we sell for fans. It's a big plus for us. If you look at the dollar value it totally amounts close to $20,000 for the year."
"We are hoping that other entities will come onboard and see what we do at secondary schools because as I've always said that this is one of the truly national association although we are deal with students in a structured facility in terms of school, but yet you know that there is a lot of students using sports in order to forward their education which is a big plus for us."
The Association hopes that other companies would get onboard initiatives like this one that can benefit students and sports in Belize.
