Ajax outsources pre-season to Sportfive

The Sportfive agency will organise Dutch football club Ajax Amsterdam’s pre-season training camp and friendly opponents under a deal announced yesterday.

Sportfive will work with Ajax’s staff to select a hotel and training location, handle all logistics at the training camp, and arrange friendly matches. The deal is for two years, 2010 and 2011.

The agency’s “friendly match department” has similar deals with the national teams of Serbia, Greece and Honduras, who are preparing for this summer’s World Cup.
