I was in JBay a few weeks ago and came across this flyer:
The first thing that I thought was "What an awesome name for an event - I can't believe no-ones used that before! " and my second thought was "Hmmm, that's an interesting title sponsor - I wonder what Bloodscan is?"
So I decided to go and find out:
Bloodscan have become involved in Surfing by sponsoring the BloodScan Africa Surf Series 2011 and also supports Junior EP surfers Emma Smith and Steven Sawyer.
“We picked surfing,” says BloodScan Africa Surf Series 2011 and BLOODSCAN EUROPE Managing Director Lewis Khoury, “because it’s an outdoors, health and wellness orientated activity that’s easily accessible to anyone living on the coast. It has low cost barriers to entry, all kids need is a surfboard and they are able to adopt a lifestyle that yields significant health and opportunities benefits.
Next time you're in JBay, go and check it out and be sure not to miss the action at The Jeffreys Bay Surf Challenge on 28th April.
