13th December, 2012

Canoe Slalom athlete Joe Coombs has a lot to offer sponsors who come on board as he steers a course to Rio 2016

Joe Coombs is a 21 year old GB Canoe Slalom Athlete and competes in the Men's Kayak discipline. His dream is to go to, and win a medal at, the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

For the past ten years Joe has been on the development pathway aiming for the Rio Olympics.

However, this season hasn't gone to plan: due to university exams and injury he hasn't reached his performance potential and has been dropped from UK Sport funding, even though he narrowly missed the senior team by 0.2 of a second.

He is training hard and funding himself on limited savings at present. He is a final year Business Management and Marketing student and Nottingham Trent University and knows the potential positives of investing in local talent. He can strengthen your brand and can attend your PR events. He can guide traffic from his website - www.joecoombs.co.uk - to yours and could even take your staff on a canoeing day!


Trying to fund his sport is very difficult - each season he buys a boat worth £1,800 and the total training costs he incurs easily exceed £8,000. In return for your sponsorship support, he can help develop your brand and appeal to your customers.

He has plenty of space for your logos on the boat, paddles, buoyancy aid and helmet and can feature you on his website and Youtube channel, which has over 36,000 video views. Follow him on Twitter: @Joe_Coombs.

     GB Senior Team reserve 2010, 2011, 2012
