Another family-owned, South Australian success story has joined the 15th Australian Masters Games team, with beverage company Nippy’s signing on as an official sponsor of Australia’s largest multisportfestival.

 

Nippy’s will provide their much-loved product to the Games Kit Bag, with every one of our 10,000 participants set to enjoy Nippy’s juice before, during and after competition.

 

Nippy’s will also provide bottled water to the Games volunteer workforce, as well as rolling out pop-up bars at a number of competition venues, serving the nation’s best fruit juice and flavoured milk.

 

Nippy’s general manager Frank Morena said, “A family owned and run company, Nippy’s has been producing real juice and milk products for over 50 years.”

 

“We are an iconic South Australian brand. Nippy’s has a proud tradition of supporting local sporting teams including the Adelaide Thunderbirds, the Adelaide Strikers, Volleyball South Australia and South Australian triathlon and duathlon events,” Mr Morena continued.

 

“As a sponsor of the 15th Australian Masters Games, Nippy’s is excited to continue their support of athletes and sporting communities.”
