LEADING automotive company, Croco Motors, has come to the party to help build the next generation of sportspersons by sponsoring the Prince Edward School rugby team, the Tigers.
The move is part of a Croco Motors initiative to foster the next generation and to inspire community support and corporate responsibility.
In a statement yesterday, the company indicated that the sponsorship was also in line with the objective to positively impact on young lives.
“Croco Motors is a trusted name in the Zimbabwean automotive industry, with a focus on sales, service and parts,” the company said.
They consistently deliver quality vehicles and exceptional customer service. Their commitment to community welfare goes beyond business transactions, as evidenced by their recent initiatives.
“One of their initiatives is the “Truckloads of Happiness Drive,” spearheaded by their leading brand, Ford Zimbabwe.
“This initiative aims to bring joy and support to communities in need. By partnering with local organisations, schools, and youth programs, Croco Motors seeks to make a positive impact on the lives of young people.
“As part of their dedication to nurturing the next generation, Croco Motors has sponsored the Prince Edward School Tigers.”
Established in 1898, the Tigers have a rich history of sports excellence and community engagement.
Their motto, “Tot Facienda Parum Factum” (which translates to so much to do, so little done), reflects their commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.
“The collaboration between Croco Motors and the Prince Edward School Tigers has already yielded positive results. Students are motivated, and their sense of pride in representing the Tigers has grown,” read the statement.
“The sponsorship has also strengthened the bond between the school and the corporate world.
“Supporting children through sports is an investment in their physical and mental well-being and a crucial step in nurturing a resilient and empowered future generation.
“Croco Motors recognises the profound impact sports can have on youth development, making it a central tenet of their corporate responsibility initiatives. Their commitment to this cause reflects a recognition of sports as a powerful tool for fostering teamwork, discipline, and self-esteem among young people.
Sport provides an invaluable platform for children to learn vital life skills such as leadership, perseverance, and cooperation.
“These lessons extend beyond the playing fields, influencing their academic and social lives, and preparing them to face adulthood with confidence. By participating in sports, children also develop a sense of belonging and community, which is essential for their emotional and social growth.
“As the Tigers continue to roar on the field and Croco Motors stands firmly behind them, championing the cause of #NurturingTheNextGeneration, they plan to expand their initiatives across other schools and communities.”
Croco also believe that, “by investing in education, sports, and community development, they aim to create a brighter future for Zimbabwe’s youth’.’
