Harrod UK in the Olympic spotlight
The Visa International Invitational Hockey Tournament will be watched by over 60,000 spectators and used by the London 2012 Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) to test key operations ahead of this summer’s Games.
This includes tests on the field of play, video referral, timing, scoring and pitch equipment which has been supplied by leading UK sports equipment manufacturer Harrod UK.
The unique event, which takes place at the state of the art Riverbank Arena, Olympic Park from 2–6 May, will feature Great Britain alongside some of the world's top teams including Australia and Germany in the men's competition; and in the women's event current world champions Argentina will be in action.
Huge interest has been shown in the Harrod equipment from visiting teams and officials alike, with new designs on show for the very first time such as 'London Blue' Hockey Goals; Team and Official's Shelters; and a unique range of hockey storage equipment.
"A home Olympic Games will only happen once in most people's lifetime," explains Harrod UK Sales and Marketing Director Les Saunders.
"To have the opportunity of showcasing our company, equipment and capabilities at this level is simply fantastic."
