Gold Coast 2018 signs sunscreen partner

Sunscreen brand Hamilton has been named as an official supplier for the 2018 edition of the Commonwealth Games multi-sport event, which will be held in Australia’s Gold Coast region.
 
Hamilton, an Australian brand, will provide sunscreen for athletes, volunteers and staff during the Games.
 
The event is due to run from April 4-15 next year.
 
Mark Peters, chief executive of the Gold Coast Organising Committee, said: “This is a great partnership and one that will enable us to voice some extremely important health messages over the summer months.
 
“Generously applying and reapplying sunscreen is important to being well protected and will be especially so for GC2018 competitors, officials, spectators, volunteers and workers who will spend plenty of time in the Queensland sun.”

The partnership was launched as Gold Coast 2018 swimming ambassador Emma McKeon (pictured) and diving ambassador Domonic Bedggood led a sun safety demonstration at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre.
