Transition Football does incredible work in developing kids into aspiring and talented soccer stars and realising their dreams. For us as a travel company, our vision remains to give all South Africans the chance to travel and to reap the benefits of seeing the world. In this case, the opportunity comes through sport.”
Transition Football Club Managing Director, Claudio Lorenzani, says that the world is opening up for their young players. “For the players, it brings the dream to life because they see opportunities abroad, which is what we want to do for them. Now we able to bridge the gap we had before by having Celtic Football as a partner and Flight Centre is giving us that dream by suppling us with kit to make the team look, feel and hopefully play professional,” says Lorenzani.
“A lot of clubs don’t have sponsorship. So, we are delighted to have a massive sponsor such as Flight Centre. You always associate a big brand with a big club and team.” Flight Centre is sponsoring the club’s football jerseys which will display the Flight Centre logo.
