Kitchener, Ontario – January 4, 2006 – Proforma Promotions, a leading provider of promotional products and e-solutions, has been named the official merchandise supplier for the Schneiders ISC World Men’s Fastball Tournaments being held in Kitchener, Ontario, August 11-19, 2006.
“We are very excited that this year’s World Fastball Tournaments will be held in Kitchener,” states Ken Doucet, owner of Proforma Promotions. “We are honored to be chosen as the official clothing supplier this year, as in 2002, and to be associated with such a well known, prestigious event.”
Tom Clancy, tournament chairperson, states that finding the right vendor to meet all of the ISC’s apparel and commemorative needs was of utmost importance. “Proforma Promotions was chosen because of the excellent merchandise that was supplied during our 2002 hosting of this tournament.
