Tourism Ministry has announced Maldives sponsorship with Celta
de Vigo, a professional Spanish football club playing in La Liga. Visit
Maldives logo will be printed on the Celta de Vigo jerseys, bus and the
stadium.
This is the first time for the Maldives to be promoted in
such a big platform, informed Tourism Minister Ali Waheed, speaking in the
conference held at Crossroads Maldives in Emboodhoo Lagoon to celebrate World
Tourism Day.
Minister said, "According to the proposal, 'Visit
Maldives' logo will be printed on the Celta de Vigo's jersey, stadium, practice
kit, and boards that include teams such as Barcelona and Real Madrid." The
wishes of the stakeholders in tourism industry are being fulfilled as the
Maldives is being advertised in such a manner.
At the recently held "Kids Football Fiesta" to celebrate World
tourism Day, two best players from the champion team Ghaazee School were given
the chance to train at Celta de Vigos training Academy. The players were
chosen by Michel Salgado, former Spanish Real Madrid defender who was invited
as a special guest at the event.
