World Games - getting our team there

The Clem Posted: 12 March 2009, 4:36 PM   As part of the ongoing support for New Zealand Orienteering from INOV8 and diryd, we have a special deal on INOV8 shoes for all NZ Orienteers for a limited time. Every 4 years the World Games showcase sports that are right on the edge of Olympic selection. This year the games are being held in Kaohshiung, Taiwan, and will see over 5,000 athletes from around the world competing in 32 different sports. For the first time in the history of these games, NZ Orienteering has been invited to send a team of 2 men and 2 women. A chance to compete against, and amongst, the best in the world. To help get our team to the games, dirtyd and inov8 are offering a limited deal on inov8 shoes thatll see a percentage of the sales go towards their campaign. This is a very rare deal for all Orienteers with prices that will be hard to beat in any NZ retail or online store. Were even throwing in a free t-shirt with every pair of shoes as stocks last. But because of this it is for a very limited time only. Were only going to be running this offer until midnight Wednesday 24th March. Then its gone! You probably wont see these prices again as by mid year, the price of inov8s will be going up to reflect the current global market. So be in quick as we have limited stock in some of the sizes. So for every step you take in your new shoes, you know youve helped a New Zealand team take on the world. Checkout the deal at: www.dirtyd.co.nz World Games: http://www.worldgames2009.tw/wg2009/eng/index.php Alright everyone, that's the spiel. We don't want to compete with WOC and JWOC for NZOF dollars that are available, so the games team ( when they know who they are) are taking the initiative. The deal is open to all orienteers, and even those who have just thought about it. We're the envy of our Scandinavian counterparts with our access to inov8's, so lets make the most of it. Spread the word, clubs, schools whoever. Regards The NZOF World Games Team   The Clem Posted: 13 March 2009, 1:58 AM   Oops, offer closes midnight Wednesday 25th March. (having issues with what day it is on a daily basis)   valerie Posted: 14 March 2009, 10:33 AM   We need more "Clems" in O-ing. Thanks Clem...its appreciated, the effort you put in.   The Clem Posted: 24 March 2009, 9:33 AM   Come midnight tommorrow, we're going to close this offer. Nationals and the bulk of the season is coming up, what do your O shoes look like? If you haven't looked at the deal, then you should do it quickly. The team is offering the shoes at $47.00 cheaper than retail. That's a huge saving. Not everyone reads Maptalk, and we're not sure if the the deal was able to be spread out to all club members. So if you can think of anyone who might like a pair, let them know where to get them asap. Big thanks to those that have supported the team so far. Especially to a few of our neighbours across the Tasman who make up nearly half of what's been ordered. Cheers The NZOF World Games Team
