NPSL Soccer News: Med City FC present Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine as its title sponsor for the club’s inaugural National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) season. The partnership will include marquee placement on the team’s home and away jerseys.
“We are excited to announce that Med City FC has joined forces with Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine,” says Frank Spaeth, general manager. “The clinical services, performance training, nutrition and sport psychology that the team will receive from experts at Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine is a huge asset to our growth as a group and the development of our individual players.”
Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine will also serve as the official title sponsor of Med City FC’s 2017 home matches.
Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center is a global leader in sports and musculoskeletal injury prevention and rehabilitation, concussion research, diagnostic and interventional ultrasound, sports performance optimization, and surgical and nonsurgical management of sports-related injuries.
