This season we have the following opportunities available:Major SponsorsSponsorship opportunities exist at the major level for the Nissan/BRW Corporate Triathlon Series (2 major's available), and the Great Ocean & Otway Classic Ride. With the popularity of triathlons and recreational cycling booming, SuperSprint has unique opportunities available to be involved with these established events! Naming Rights - Great Ocean & Otway Classic RideNaming rights opportunity is available for this popular and spectacular ride along one of Australia's most breathtaking roads. This event sells out! Naming Rights - XTERRA AustraliaDue to the enormous amount of positive feedback SuperSprint received for this event, the opportunity exists for a naming rights sponsor for the XTERRA Australia event or the potential for a National XTERRA Series. XTERRA is recognised internationally and is the world's most popular adventure series! Support and Sample SponsorsOpportunities exist across a range of events at the support and sample level.
