Watch over 50 IAAF Events Live and On-Demand at WCSN.com

Trigger Point Technologies in Australia signs on as an Official sponsor of Ironman Australia, Ironman Western Australia and Ironman 70.3 Geelong

Austin, TX ­ March 25th, 2008 ­ Ironman Australia and Trigger Point Technologies are pleased to announce a new partnership. Trigger Point will become the official performance therapy supplier of all Ironman Australia events through the 2009 racing season.

"We are very excited about this new partnership with all the Ironman races in Australia. As a coach and Ironman athlete, I am passionate about performance enhancement and injury prevention. This partnership offers the opportunity to provide fellow athletes education on how to treat common overuse injuries while empowering them to achieve goals they never thought possible," commented Australian distributor, Kristian Manietta.

TPT will be on-site at all the Ironman expos in Australia providing individual consultations at its booths.

Australian consumers will have new opportunities to see and experience TPT products because of the physical presence of TPT representatives at all Ironman Australia races. Racers and spectators alike can visit the TPT booths and get hands on demonstrations that will show the benefits of using these products. The methodologies and techniques patented by TPT will bring a new perspective to the way athletes and non-athletes alike prepare for the everyday wear and tear on their bodies.

This sponsorship opportunity will allow TPT to enhance the lives of more athletes, trainers, coaches, and practitioners than ever before.

"Iıve been fortunate enough to work with some of Australiaıs greatest triathletes: Greg Bennett, Loretta Harrop, Craig Alexander, Kate Major, Charlotte Paul and so many others. Itıs been a dream of mine to have some real recognition for what we do down under, and this is the perfect platform to allow this," commented Cassidy Phillips, founder and CEO of TPT.

About Trigger Point Technologies
