British Gymnastics signs Fast Track to secure sponsorship

British Gymnastics has appointed UK sports marketing and events agency Fast Track to seek a lead sponsor for the sport and sponsors for a range of British Gymnastics assets in the build up to London 2012 and the 2014 Glasgow Commonwealth Games.

Gymnastics is the fourth Olympic sport to join the Fast Track stable following athletics, basketball and triathlon.

"We are delighted to announce the appointment of Fast Track. They are a leader in the sector and we are confident that the appointment will help us to attract the right partners to support our programmes.

"We offer attractive propositions to brand owners including far reaching development programmes and a strong presence at elite level through our teams and gymnasts like World Champion Beth Tweddle, Olympic medallist Louis Smith and World medallist Daniel Keatings."
