Tattnall Elementary Soccer World Cup partners with Uniroyal / Northside Tire for upcoming season

Macon, Ga. — (September 28, 2011) — The Uniroyal Soccer Program is 12 years strong and rolling forward this season with more dealers participating every year. Starting October 28, families of Tattnall Square Academy will receive certificates that can be redeemed for a free soccer ball at Northside Tire, while supplies last. After the 30-day program period, Tattnall Square Academy will receive $2 for every Uniroyal^® tire sold to the general public on behalf of Uniroyal and Northside Tire.

 Since the program’s inception in 2000, the Uniroyal Soccer Program has provided nearly $14 million in funds and equipment, including over one million soccer balls, to more than 3,000 youth soccer leagues across the United States.   

 “Contributing to our local community and supporting our youth is so important to us,” said Chris Forehand of Northside Tire. “We look forward to connecting with players and families from Tattnall Square Academy when they come in for their free soccer ball.”

 “It is an honor to provide such a distinct program for our dealers to stay involved in their communities,” said Ana Martin, Uniroyal Communications Manager. “Soccer leagues depend on donations from partners like Northside Tire, and we are pleased to facilitate that relationship.”

 Uniroyal announces the introduction of the new Laredo^® Cross Country Tour tire. Launched August 1, 2011, this affordable tire is designed specifically for CUVs, SUVs and light trucks. It offers the perfect combination of durability, long-lasting wear, all-season performance and a 60,000-Mile Manufacturers Limited Warranty.
