Osmotech are proud to announce the sponsorship partnership with Meg n Steph, local sailors on their Campaign to win the 2024 Olympics.
The two girls are members of the British Sailing Team - the world's most successful sailing team. Based in Hamble, Southampton, Osmotech have teamed up to help the girls on their journey to win Olympic Gold in 2024.
Meg N' Steph sail on a 49erFX, which is the formula 1 boat of sailing, requiring strength, endurance and tactical skills. It is a new cutting-edge design which thrills and excites audiences
James Coker, Sales Director from Osmotech said: "It's such a privilege to support local talent. Working within the boating industry I know it takes a lot of commitment to achieve what Meg and Steph have so far in a sport which doesn't have as much exposure such as football or rugby. Sailing has become a lot more recognised in the recent years' so we are proud to support Meg and Steph on their journey to win the Olympics."
Team member, Megan Brickwood said: "We are super excited to have Osmotech join our Olympic Campaign towards 2024. We are really grateful for their support as build into the 2020 Olympics as training partners to the British selected boat this cycle. It is even more special to us, having a local company support us and the shared passion to sailing and being on the water. We are committed to training hard and achieving our goals of winning an Olympic gold medal, but in that pursuit would love to give back as much as we can to our incredible supporters. We are very fortunate to be out in Lanzarote training with all the international top teams and working towards our Europeans in May and World Championships in November in Oman. Like many people this year, we have been kept on our toes with plans chopping and changing, but we are doing our best to stay positive and enjoy every day out on the water training towards our major championships."
"Again, a huge thank you to Osmotech in Hamble for joining us on our journey. We hope to bring back lots of medals throughout our campaign and look forward a successful Olympic campaign alongside Osmotech."
