ŠKODA AUTO's support for Ice Hockey
has a long tradition
We have been the official main sponsor of IIHF World Championships since 1993 and we will carry on until 2011, at least. This partnership is the longest in the history of world sports championships.
Logical affiliation
ŠKODA AUTO and Ice Hockey have a lot in common: Ice Hockey is attractive to the people. Success on ice requires teamwork, intelligent decisions and dedicated action. Like that, everybody at ŠKODA AUTO is highly dedicated to delivering top quality and it is teamwork, attractive cars in both design and prize and clever solutions that enable ŠKODA to succeed in the global automotive competition.
ŠKODA vehicles in the centre of attention
For this significant event in the world of ice hockey we provide an official fleet of ŠKODA cars, which the organisers use to transport people during the championships. We display our cars during matches in the corners of the stadiums, the centre circle for face-offs bears the company’s logo and the boards also carry ŠKODA advertising.
In its home environment, the ŠKODA brand is linked as the main partner with the Czech national ice hockey team and the extraliga.
