THE strong partnership between the WRFL and TIV is set to continue in 2016.
The two organisations have worked together for several years and will continue to work hand-in-hand to promote TIV’s building and training programs for another year.
In 2016 TIV will take on the naming rights of the Leagues Under-19 competition, which will now be known as the TIV Cup.
Participants in the new Under-19 competition are the target audience for TIV’s Cert 3 in Carpentry and Bricklaying courses.
TIV’s Business Development manager Jason Pickles said club’s showed a great interest in the TIV course at the league’s Suppliers and Partners function last month.
“A number of WRFL clubs expressed an interest in me visiting their clubs to talk to their Under-19 players, and their parents, about the opportunities this Cert 3 in Carpentry and Bricklaying courses offered,” he said.
Mr Pickles went on to say that a number of AFL footballers have enrolled in these courses, with the support of their club, in a bid to be better prepared for life after football.
“We’re very pleased to have TIV sign up again as a partner,” WRFL’s Peter Harley said.
“TIV’s involvement provides our clubs with the opportunity to pass on to their Under-19 players and their family’s information about potential careers in the building industry.”
Mr Pickles will be in contact with WRFL clubs to set up times for an initial visit as well as to discuss the option of TIV’s presenting to the Under 19 players and their parents.
