Erreà is officially the new technical partner of Sport Center Parma, with an agreement lasting until 2027. This collaboration was made possible thanks to the support of Erreà Play Parma, which will assist the sports centre by ensuring high-quality services.
The Sport Center Polisportiva has a total of 70 staff members, 4,000 registered members, 1,200 children enrolled in the Swim School, and 400 competitive athletes. Every month, around 70,000 people visit the Ercole Negri Sports Centre, which is managed by Sport Center.
Erreà will provide clothing for all the staff, including employees and collaborators, and for the 400 competitive athletes, whose ages range from 8 years old to the members of the Master team.
The competitive sectors include swimming, Paralympic swimming, artistic swimming, and women’s water polo. Notably, the women’s water polo team has reached historic achievements, with promotion to Serie A2 in June 2023 and direct safety in the 2023/2024 season. The team’s project is to reach Serie A1 within the next three years, further strengthening Sport Center Parma’s presence in the Italian sports scene.
The technical clothing line by Erreà will feature a simple and functional style, with red – the colour of the Sport Center Parma logo – representing passion and determination. Great attention will also be paid to the sustainability of the materials, in line with the values of the sports centre and the brand.
Renato Baladelli, President of Sport Center Polisportiva, stated: "Being supported for the next three years by an international partner like Erreà, yet one so deeply rooted in the territory, gives us the strength to look to the future with more determination. We are proud to wear a customised line that represents us through its colours and style: simplicity, passion, and sustainability. Our 4,000 members will also benefit from this partnership, thanks to the quality of the products and the innovation of the service offered, like Team Smart. Our main sporting goal is to celebrate the women’s water polo Serie A1 in three years, writing another chapter in Parma's sports history.”
Roberto Gandolfi, Vice President of Erreà: “We are excited to embark on this new adventure with Sport Center Parma, a rapidly growing sports entity with extraordinary potential. From the very beginning, we recognised in them a profound alignment with the values we hold dear: sport as a tool for growth, education, and social cohesion. This partnership is much more than a simple sporting collaboration. It is an opportunity to strengthen ties with a passionate and active community, which sees sport as a way to push personal limits and promote a healthy and positive lifestyle."
