\u201cThe talent we see in our young Sri Lankan athletes is truly inspiring. But it is not an easy journey for them. Our athletes face many difficulties outside their training and put in a lot of hard work to be here.\u201d said SLA President, Major General Palitha Fernando.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen underprivileged and talented athletes come from rural areas of this country to reach the doorstep of the international arena, this support is a great strength for them. On behalf of every athletics enthusiast in Sri Lanka, I appreciate this huge step taken by MAS Holdings. This will support Sri Lankan athletes who are going to the international level to make our motherland proud.\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe at MAS are changemakers,\u201d said Dilshan Mohamed, Director Marketing and Business Development at Bodyline. \u201cAnd this time we wanted to make a change for Sri Lankan athletics by helping them elevate their game through performance wear that uses a very light breathable fabric, with moisture wicking capabilities and a soft feel for augmented comfort\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot only are we excited about providing game day and training kits to our teams, but as the official clothing partner for SLA, we are excited to work with our national athletes in product co-creation, carrying out studies that contribute to enhancing and innovating better, more superior products.\u201d said Dinesh de Silva, CEO of Bodyline Pvt Ltd.<\/p>\n

The agreement between MAS and SLA was signed by the President of Sri Lanka Athletics, Palitha Fernando and Dinesh de Silva, Chief Executive Officer of Bodyline Trading (Pvt) Ltd.<\/p>\n
