Supporting Sports 2009

Co-sponsoring Ehime Sports Exchange Tournament Long-distance Road Race

Nitoms co-sponsored the 5th Ehime Sports Exchange Tournament of Long-distance Road Race in Hojyo held on 11 February 2010. This event aimed to not only use sports as a means of deepening relationships but also to promote the bringing up of children in a healthy manner. The event boasted about 500 elementary school participants and was met with a great deal of cheer as the children ran through the town.

Donation of PVC Tape

Regio-volley is an organization that allows children of all ages to play volleyball in a non-competitive environment. Sports are a great way to teach children important social skills and values such as fair play, team work and being gracious at both winning and losing.

Furthermore, the organization also assists sporting clubs and trainers by organizing specific courses for them. Nitto Europe donates 4,000m of PVC tape per year, which is used to mark volleyball fields.
