OTTAWA – Following an extensive search, Taekwondo Canada is excited to announce that Sponsorship Canada (a division of REVXM-Immediate Productions) has been tapped to serve as its exclusive sponsorship agency of record.
Part of the arrangement includes Sponsorship Canada establishing partnership programs for Taekwondo Canada’s participation or hosting of Championships at the National and International levels, alongside leveraging the National Sport Organization’s (NSO) extensive member club base.
“Taekwondo Canada is pleased and excited to be working with Sponsorship Canada on its sponsorship and commercial strategy for our sport moving forward,” said Executive Director Dave Harris. “We have seen the sport of taekwondo grow not only as a martial art, which is participated in great numbers by Canadians, but also at the elite level including the Olympics. With this in mind, Taekwondo Canada believes that Sponsorship Canada will be a great partner in attracting corporate Canada to align itself with what is a tremendous sport in this country.”
Given Sponsorship Canada’s work with national sport organizations across the country and tenured track record of results with different properties from sports to entertainment, to not for profits and beyond, Sponsorship Canada is the optimal choice to help Taekwondo Canada capitalize on its commercial trajectory as the NSO gears up for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
“We are thrilled to be able to help Taekwondo Canada with procuring sponsorship as the organization journeys on the road to the Olympics, said Bill Gaskey, Managing Partner of Sponsorship Canada. “We look forward to replicating our successes with Olympic brand campaigns our parent company XMC has done in this new territory, especially due to taekwondo’s rich history. Taekwondo Canada is truly an untapped opportunity for brands to achieve their objectives and further their footprint nationally and internationally”.
An attractive alignment to brands will certainly be working with Taekwondo’s Canada roster of elite athletes including: Skylar Park, Ashley Kraayeveld and many others as well as the emerging dojang stars from Taekwondo Canada’s 500+ member clubs coast to coast.
Taekwondo’s origins in Canada date back nearly 60 years and since then have grown participation across 12 provincial and territorial sport organizations, amassing to 30,000+ enrolled taekwondo members.
As Taekwondo Canada turns the next decade, the organization has ambitious goals of scaling its commercial roster to provide brands with stability, national and international visibility, and community engagement, hoping to continually set the benchmark as a leading nation and governing body of the sport.
