Argon Technologies Supports Medal Winning Tennis Team

by isleofman.com 8th August 2013

Argon Technologies was pleased to stand in at the last minute to provide clothing sponsorship to the multi-medal winning Island Games Tennis Team.  The team won gold in the Men’s Singles and Mixed Doubles, silver in the Mixed Doubles, Women’s Doubles, Women’s Singles and bronze in the Woman’s Team Events. This year’s Island Games was the most successful ever for the Isle of Man, with the total medal tally exceeding all expectations at 97 medals across a variety of sporting disciplines.

The tennis team approached Argon only a few weeks before they were due to fly and the business answered their call for assistance. The specialist kit was sourced and arrived in the nick of time to be passed to the team the day before they left the Island.

Iain Fairbairn, Managing Director of Argon, said: “I am  thrilled for all the players and for the team as a whole that they had such a successful Island Games. It’s great that Argon Technologies was in a position to support the team and that the clothing arrived just in time for their trip.”

Team Manager, Daphne Snidal also commented: “We are very grateful for Argon’s support. Tennis had their most successful Games ever in Bermuda, winning a total of six medals, 2 gold in the men's singles and the mixed doubles, 3 silver in women's singles, women's doubles and mixed doubles, and a women's team bronze.”
