TRALEE Warriors have re-armed and are ready for battle again this weekend, after securing a new sponsor to help them in their quest for success in top flight basketball.

The Club has enjoyed a most successful run to date in their first season in the National Men’s Superleague and Garveys Group this week have been announced as the main sponsor for the rest of the season.

Players and management gathered at the Garveys Supervalu Store in Rock Street on last Tuesday night to announce the sponsorship.

Garveys, who have been to the forefront in the community for decades in terms of their support for various sporting projects, are delighted to support the team.

Back in 1989 Tralee Tigers, boosted by Garveys sponsorship won promotion from the Second Division.

Subsequently their rise to the top was steady and spectacular, culminating in they winning the first of their three Superleague crowns under the Garveys banner in 95/96.

Tralee has always been a Basketball stronghold and the return of top flight competition this year has breathed life back into the sporting community on alternative Saturday nights in the Tralee Sports Complex.

The team is currently unbeaten at home and they will be anxious to maintain that record when the unbeaten League leaders Templeogue visit Tralee on this Saturday night (Tip off. 8.00).

With Garveys support, along with a number of other businesses, they certainly have the right backers behind them.
