ASICS NZ - - Partner Young and Healthy 2019 Trust

ASICS NZ

Ambassador Partner

ASICS was founded in 1949 by Mr Kihachiro Onitsuka in Kobe, Japan. Mr Onitsuka lived by the philosophy ‘a sound mind in a sound body’ and believed sport could help the youth of Japan recover from the devastation of war. He thought playing sport was the best way to unite people and connect communities. At ASICSNZ we continue to work to support these philosophies.

Supporting the work of the Young and Healthy Trust is a perfect fit with our brand values and we and our ASICS Ambassadors are excited to see the kids of New Zealand benefit from such a valuable programme.
